FTLOW: Washi Garden

The holidays are over and my seed catalogs are arriving, making me wish we could skip over the rest of the cold months and jump right into spring.

Use your leafy and floral washi to create a note card to send your partner. Make it simple or elaborate but do a nice job. Inside the note card write a short note to your partner about a garden. If you don't garden yourself, maybe tell about a memory of time spend in a garden in your past.

Then, take four or five of your favorite floral or garden-ish tapes and wrap 12 - 15" onto a slick surface, like a plastic playing card or other card covered with packing tape. These will be washi tapes, not deco or dollar store paper tapes.

Finally, use some tape (can be deco or paper tape) and add it to the outside of your mailing envie to make it real happy mail! Send on time, and rate your partner promptly upon receipt.
