This is another project that is abstract and involves sticky materials! This washi tape art project is always a hit with kids! It uses two very fun art materials: patterned washi tape and Kwik Stix paint sticks.

Many people are familiar with the technique where you lay down tape, paint over it and then peel the tape off to reveal the white sections. Here is an example of that project I did using hopes and goals with my Girl Scout troop years ago.

This is a slightly different process because you leave the tape on and use Kwik Stix paint sticks instead!

Three images depict a fun art project for kids: 1. Applying washi tape on paper. 2. Adding colored markers. 3. Completed colorful taped and colored paper sections. Confetti surrounds the images, adding to the vibrant creativity!.

Note: these are all my teacher examples, but the kids are very successful with them starting in grades 3 and up.

This vibrant abstract artwork, reminiscent of a joyful art project, showcases overlapping geometric shapes in pink, yellow, blue, and red. Patterns like stripes, polka dots, and hearts bring a playful touch akin to designs crafted with colorful washi tape.

Washi Tape

● There are many different kinds of washi tapes that you might enjoy. I tested out several different sets to share with you and these vary in quality with some being completely useless, ripping as you try to unpeel them to others that unpeel and stick easily. The ones listed below I have tried out and like how they unpeel and stick. (The others I just returned!)

Set of 30 Colorful Rolls

Set of 40 Variety Pack

Set of 50 Cute Characters Pack

A collection of colorful washi tape rolls in a box, with various patterns including hearts, animals, and stars, next to cut strips arranged in rows on a white background.

An array of decorative washi tapes with various patterns and colors, featuring cartoon animals, rainbows, and geometric designs, arranged vertically on a white background.

Set of 27 Monet Inspired Washi Tape rolls (some with gold foil)- when I first opened the package it didn’t look as bright in person, but when I unrolled the tape onto white paper, the colors were very nice. I say these are inspired because I’m not sure all of these patterns are directly from his paintings.
