Description:
Send your partners samples of at least 8 different tapes. Please make sure each length of tape is at least 16 inches. These can be thin, medium, or wide. Sender's choice. No plain color tapes. You can stick them to sticker paper, wind them around paper clips or wooden pencils, or however you would like but please make sure they can be used by the receiver and aren't permanently stuck to whatever you put them on. Especially be careful of this with deco tapes because they can easily get stuck. No recent 1's or 3's and not on my ban list, and US only.

LOL; I don't have eight different tapes, otherwise I'd join.

You have private swaps coming, my friend. You will have 8 I think... :)

Here's some tips for sending washi tape samples:

put strips of clear packing tape on both sides of a piece of card stock, and wrap your tape around it.
I'm thinking pages from a photo holder album might work well too, like the ones for 4x6 sized photos. You can find these at the dollar stores or even your local thrift stores may be a good source :)

Clear packing tape on recipe cards might be good too :)

Thanks for the tips! I didn't think about that with the packing tape. Might be a lot easier than the paperclips!

I just tried the packing tape method & it works great. I'm ready to swap - LOL!

@kynara wishywashi.com is wonderful. As low as $1.99 a roll!

Also if anyone needs to beef up their stash of tape samples, send me a PM and I will happily do a private swap in exchange for stickers or something else in my profile list.

I have found that straws work really well for samples too!!
