"&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Washi tape is useful for decorating lots of things, including and especially school supplies like notebooks and folders. You can use vibrant patterns to add some color and life to a plain notebook or folder, or recycle used folders that are still in good shape by covering up old writing with white paper and washi tape. It&amp;amp;#39;s a pretty and economical way to reuse old school supplies, and it&amp;amp;#39;s good for the environment, too!&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Here&amp;amp;#39;s what you&amp;amp;#39;ll need to decorate your folders or notebooks:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&amp;lt;li&amp;gt;plain white unlined copy paper&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&amp;lt;li&amp;gt;scissors&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&amp;lt;li&amp;gt; &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;http://about.pricegrabber.com/search.php?form_keyword&amp;amp;#61;washi&amp;amp;#43;tape&amp;amp;amp;mode&amp;amp;#61;about_childparenting&amp;amp;amp;ut&amp;amp;#61;cff1942744ce143c&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;externalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot; rel=&amp;quot;nofollow&amp;quot;&amp;gt;washi tapes&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; in various colors and sizes (For this project, I used a red striped tape, a red tape with white polka dots, a narrow light orange, and a wide orange.)&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;(NOTE: You can find washi tapes through PriceGrabber or through online retailers like &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;http://www.cutetape.com/&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;externalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;2&amp;quot; rel=&amp;quot;nofollow&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Cutetape.com&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;.)&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Take strips of unlined white copy paper and place it over any writing, or put it anywhere you want the washi to show through vividly. (Since washi is translucent--with the exception of very dark solid colors--white paper shows off the designs nicely.)&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;You can also write or print out a new label for your folder or notebook. Have an old Math folder? Presto! Now you can turn it into an English folder.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;Take your washi tape and put it around the label and on and around the strips of white paper. Whatever you design is up to you!&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Here is just one example of a folder decorated with washi tape. It&amp;amp;#39;s so simple, easy, and fast, and yet the results are so completely lovely. Best of all, you&amp;amp;#39;ve taken something old and made itt better than new!&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Create your own designs--whatever you want to make is up to you!&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
