I saw this simple little project tacked up on Pinterest (check out these pins here and here). Since I still had some pretty paper left over from my Mason Jar Makeover post, I decided that this would be the perfect project to accomplish next on my looong list of things I've pinned to do on Pinterest.
HERE'S THE HOW TO:
Stuff you'll need:
Just a few notes on supplies: It's best to use a thick sheet of paper that will stand easily on its own. Also, the paper I used had a pattern on both sides so that it would look pretty from both the front or the back.
Method:
1. Remove the paper insert from the tape dispenser and use it as a template. Trace its shape onto your paper:
With double sided paper, it looks great from both sides:
That's so simple, and now I'm starting to wonder why I've never thought of that, haha. Going to do this to my tape dispensers n__n Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteWe have double-sided paper left over from other projects and I plan to do this with all our dispensers. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it awesome when you already have all the supplies you need for a project at home?!!
DeleteGlad you're gonna give these a try. I know you'll love 'em. :)
I love this idea! I came across a tape dispenser in my scrapbook stuff tonight after I saw your post, so of course I had to give it a try. I did something similar with some pens I brought to work a while back. I love that it's so easy to do, but it brights things up.
ReplyDeleteNow why didn't I think of this? TFS this is a fantastic idea!
