TAPE AS A DETERRENT

Masking tape has many a use. This is one of them. By wrapping tape like a maniac around things, people usually get the idea not to use it, take this tap for example.


Wrap wrap wrap wrap wrap...


Additionally, by writing Do Not Use onthe tape, you can be pretty sure that your message will get across. Masking tape is the perfect tape for this... nice and friendly and papery and whats more, you can write on it!


I like coming across creative uses of tape on my travels, it proves just how indispensible it is!

MANHATTAN SUBWAY TAPE

Since starting this blog, i have had some fantastic feedback from people all around the world. This one here was sent in by a fellow stickytape obsessive. In fact, this person who emailed me might even be more obsessed with stickytape than me! So thanks Mare, I love all the links you sent me!


This tape is apparently available to buy at the Moma design store in New York, or if this etsy link is still active you can also see it at this amazing etsy shop called WonderlandRoom


Its basically the map of the New York subway printed onto 60mm wide tape. Not only is it gorgeous, but also super functional, and combines two of my most favourite things - maps and tape.


If anyone has any more map tape, please send me pics, links!
