The history of washi tape

Washi tape, also known as masking tape, has its roots in traditional Japanese handicrafts.The term "washi" refers to the thinner and more durable paper that is made from plant fibres.The tape was first produced in Japan in the 1920s and was initially used as a tool for painters to draw straight lines and cover areas.

In the 1980s, washi tape also began to gain popularity outside Japan, especially in the DIY and crafting community.Today, washi tape is a popular crafting material all over the world, available in a variety of colours, patterns and widths.
