Washi Tape Birdhouse

I bought this plain white bird house at Joann's on clearance. I always love a good bargain! It sat in my craft closet forever because I just couldn't decide what I wanted to do with it.

 

 As part of a craft contest, I decided washi tape would be perfect to add a little color and pattern to it.

 

I chose a bright red, geometric patterned tape.

You just have to make sure you line up the patterns (much like sewing).

For contrast, I used a teal damask patterned tape.

But it didn't seem quite finished. So I added a black polka dot tape.

 

I love how just adding a little washi tape can transform a boring birdhouse. Another great thing is that if I decide I want to change colors, the washi tape can be easily removed and replaced.
