I love when blogging friends publish books of their very best and favorite work. I know how much love (ahem, and work!) goes into putting a book together and publishing it…….so I’m always THRILLED when I see someone publish an entire book of beautiful projects!
Enter Kami, from No Biggie. Kami and I met years and years ago at a Michael’s Blogger event and I have adored her ever since. Really, she has the biggest heart and the best ideas! She has such a creative eye for crafting/decor and always posts the most delicious I-wish-I-could-taste-through-my-screen recipes!
Just recently, Kami released her very first book, Washi Tape Christmas. And for those of you who are like me, and have a crazy Washi Tape addiction (and snatch one up any time you see a cute new print at the store and figure there must be SOME reason you need another roll)…..this book is PERFECT!!!
Washi Tape Christmas has an adorable variety of ornaments, cards, gift wrapping, holiday decor and more. All made with simple strips of Washi Tape. So genius! And so darling!!
The book is filled with colored images on each and every page, with clear instructions for each project.
Such a beautiful book with over 30 projects, to get you crafting and decorating this Christmas season! And even more, so many really simple and fun ideas to give to friends, neighbors, teachers, etc.
“Washi Tape Christmas” is available online at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and in your local craft stores, like Joann’s.
Also, you can purchase “Washi Tape Christmas” along with a 9 roll set of Washi Tape, over at No Biggie.
Such a fun and clever book Kami…..thanks so much for creating an entire book full of the best Washi Tape ideas out there, just in time for Christmas! :)

I love giving gifts during the Christmas holiday :)
I love getting some extra time to spend with my kids. My baby is 16 and they grow up way too fast.
I love, love, love the spirit of Christmas and I love, love, love washi tape.
I love the music, lights, and the warm atmosphere of Christmas. But, most of all I like coming up with gift ideas and making them! Picking out special outfits for my little ones is another highlight.
I love seeing my kids’ excitement about the holidays! Thanks for the giveaway!
I love making gifts and giving them to family and friends.
I love holiday spirit and cheerfulness
i love watching my daughter open her gifts christmas morning!
LovE being surrounded by my family
I love family and traditions!
Love being with family!
I make almost all of my Christmas gifts, so I am always looking for more ideas.
Love finding the Holiday adventures to see lights, snow, music, shows and Christmas trees with my family…especially the little ones!
Mostly the delicious smells!
I love all the food and the sparkling lights!
I love the magical feeling of Christmas – twinkling lights, glitter, sweet treats, music and surprises.
I love re-centering on Christ at Christmas! And being with my family.
I really love the music!
I love the excitement of my children. I have 5 kids all 3 and under… It’s a lot of excitement! Always on the lookout for a new project to do with the kids! Sounds like such a fun book.
Now that we have grandkids I especially enjoy buying or making gifts for them.
Would love this! White snow, a real Christmas Tree, the smells and spices of the season, the time with family and friends, and the overall desire most have to be a little kinder to everyone.
My favorite thing about Christmas is being with family, living far away from them all year makes this an extra special treat for me and especially for my kids.
the music!
I love to see my kids’faces when they open the gifts.
I love being with my four little grandsons – Christmas is for the kids.
So many things to love about Christmas, but perhaps my favorite is the juxtaposition of warmth and light amid the darkest, coldest time of the year. That’s what one divine baby brought.
It is the one time of year I absolutely set aside time to craft and be creative! My family has a long tradition (started 60 years ago when my parents were first married) of handcrafting holiday cards and I have kept it up. We both keep a scrapbook of the cards and it is so great to look back over the years to see the different materials used, the changing styles, and know that this is a long family tradition I don’t want to break! Some of the oldest cards are the most creative and (re)used materials!
I love to to give an suspecting person a gift, anonymously.
There’s so much that I love about Christmas time – the music, the smells, the special family moments, giving gifts, baking cookies, crafting.
I love taking all day to open packages and play new games. I love that I have NOTHING ELSE to do but just be a mom and a wife and enjoy my family.
I love focusing on family, seeing the joy on loved ones face and most of all celebrating the birth of Jesus! Merry Christmas!
My favorite part about Christmas is the time off from work to spend with my family. This year we will have two weeks to just catch up on crafts, games, baking, and even some organizing! :) One of our favorite traditions is we love to pick out a few new ornaments at St. Nick’s Christmas shop near our house a week or two before Christmas. The children each pick one and they add to their “stash” ever year. Once they marry, they can take their “stash” with them to start their own ornament tradition.
I love cooking and baking all of our favorites!
I love the baking, sharing, giving gifts, recalling Christmas’ past with family members and friends. But best of all is seeing my son who lives in No. Calif. (we live in San Diego).
i love that my kids have no school, and we have lots of time together to play with new toys, read new books, play games and eat good food together!
My favorite thing about Christmas is our Christmas Eve dinner. We have a Swedish dinner that my family has been doing for over 150 years, since my great-grandmother was a child in Sweden. It’s our favorite meal of the entire year — delicious, magical, and full of family history and fun. After dinner everyone has to say a rhyme before we have dessert and the poems/rhymes are always entertaining. I love everything about it and look forward to it all year.
I love the family time and having my kids be so excited. Decorating our tree is definitely a highlight, hearing the kids talk about their special ornaments they’ve made or received is pure joy to this momma’s heart!
I love it all….from the real reason for Christmas, to buying gifts, to baking, meals, family gatherings and the kids opening up gifts. My fav time of year…
I love spending time with my family watching Christmas movies, baking cookies and decorating. I also enjoy teaching my kids about the true meaning of Christmas.
I love spending time with my family! I love watching the grandkids and kids opening their gifts and just spending quality time them all!
I love when the kids get out for break, we make ccokies, cocoa, do crafts, and really enjoy one another!
I love celebrating all of the traditions that my girls and I have made over the years.
I love to make gifts for family and friends throughout the year. I make outdoor picnic/beach blankets for toddlers and grown ups. I am now retired and find that sewing or painting keeps me busy. I am always looking for new and exciting projects to create.
I love singing with my church choir at the midnight service – everyone softly singing Silent Night by candlelight is one of my most treasured memories of Christmas
I love Christmas because its a time to reflect on the love of Christ and what Christmas is all about and share that with family and friends. I could leave my decorations up all year because it is the Holiday that makes me happy and thankful for everything I have and the peple in my life
Since my family and little ones are 1200 miles away, I love to share the love and joy with them by face time, and sending very special hand made items for them to remember me.
I also like to add a special Christmas hand made item for their wall, door or tree.
That way Gramma is not too far away from their hearts.
I love giving the perfect gifts!
I love the choir during Christmas – it’s so much fun to be in, and you really feel both the spirit of the Lord, and the spirit of Christmas in it :) next, is spending time with family.
Seeing my kids faces on Christmas morning
There is so much to love about Christmas. It is hard to teach my children about the true reason for Christmas. We keep it low key and emphasize Jesus’ gift to us and being together as a family. That is what I love, the cozy family time.
I love to make special gifts & have fun crafting with the kids. The book looks amazing.
Merry Christmas xo
I love making treats with the kids and taking them to our neighbors.
I look forward to spending time with my family and guilefully catching up on some craft projects!
How fun! I like doing traditional British things with my kids, since I’m a British expat. We always have British food and pull crackers at Christmas dinner.
I love baking Christmas cookies with my family.
There is something magical about the atmosphere at Christmas that no other holiday brings. Now that my children are grown with families and children of their own, I cherish the times we can all be together.
What an awesome book idea! My favorite thing about Christmas besides enjoying time with some people I love is all the lights! Christmas lights are just so wonderful and cheery. They could be the only decoration I put up and I’d still be happy (but I still want a tree too haha)
Giving gifts to family and friends
I love Santa in all his forms.
I love Christmas. I love the atmosphere and remember my infanty with my big family!!!
That book looks super cute! I’m looking forward to decorating and gift giving.
I love the quiet moments that are tucked in amongst all the craziness. All the better if snow is falling.
I love going for FHE with the kids to see Christmas lights and seeing the REAL santa that I remember visiting when I was little at the Dickens Festival!
I love getting together with my mom, sister and our kids to bake and decorate Christmas cookies. I also love when my husband and I take our kids to look at all the Christmas lights.
My neighbor behind our house one time complained that we only had lights behind our house, so now we take a piece of plywood and spell out one family members name in lights each year, we now have a train of lights behind our house.
i meant that we only had lights in front of our house.
I love the music and all the hustle and bustle!
it makes me feel young and innocent again.
I love seeing family! :)
Good food and cozy evenings in front of the fire… Friends and family and Christmas carols…
Colourful packages tied up with strings,
These are a few of my favourite things
I love getting to see family, special times with our children, lights, cold weather….
I love the decorations, the carols. Most especially Christmas Eve Services at my church.
I love the time when all the family comes together. Sometimes it has been awhile since all of my family gets together, so when we do, it is really special.
I know it sounds cliche but I really do just love spending the time with my family! :)
I love getting together with family and friends! It’s such a great time to just spend time together and eat delicious food!
Love the music, lights, different nativity sets, decorating the tree, making handmade gifts, hiding gifts to outsmart my kids, (haha) and being part of the feel good, giving season
I love that there is a different kind of feeling at Christmas; more peace, more love, more joy in simple things. I love to see the magic in the eyes of my daughter and my husband!
I really love the time spent with family. The kids love the presents, but I’d be happy to go without!
I love decorating the home, shopping for friends & family, spending time with family & friends and driving around looking at Christmas lights.
I love to make candy with my mom each year at Christmas time that we share with friends and family.
Baking! I can make treats and give them away without complaints! :)
I love when my family gets together with my husbands family 12 grandkids ranging from 21 to 2. We do some craft projects with the kids to have fun times until Santa arrives to remind them all to be good kids. Love watching the creativity of some of my nieces and nephews and kids. Where they take your basic ideas is awesome to see.
I love how millions of people are celebrating Christ all at the same time! And I love doing family traditions that bring us all closer.
Thanks for a chance to win a prize!
Being around family. <3
I love our annual gingerbread house decorating contest with family and friends; the excitement, scents and music in the air; and choosing that perfect handmade and store-bought gift for each individual on my list! Can’t wait!!
My favorite part of Christmas (other than Celebrating our Savior Jesus Christ) is spending time with family!
I love celebrating Jesus’ birthday and spending time with our kids and family and friends and singing Christmas Carols too!
I simply love being with the family and our annual cookie decorating party!
I love sewing gifts, as well as making my “highly anticipated” Chex mix for everyone in my hubby’s extended family. I’m currently sewing a pettiskirt for a lucky 3 year old niece. Thanks to your tutorial!!!
I love the homemade treats!
I just love the stress free time with family. P.S. The links in the email you sent don’t work. FYI.
What a fun book!
I like the family getting together laughing and enjoying each other.
I absolutely adore Christmas time! I love it when it’s dark outside, and I’m just all cosied up in front of the TV. And all of the great Christmas TV! And warming food! And wherever I go, everyone’s in the Christmas spirit! It’s just great!
Always loved the colours and designs of washi tape but never really knew what to do with it. Would love to win this amazing looking book to explore lots of possibilities.
Love meeting up with people that I may only see once a year.
I love the Reason (Jesus) and traditions with my family. My crFty daughter and I would have so much fun with this!
This is so cute! I love all the cooking and baking recipes that I save up for this time of year!
What I really like about Christmas is time spent with the family and friends that you don’t always get to be with
This is a whole new aspect for me. This tape has caught my eye, but never knew how best to make use of it. So here is a new piece of creativity for me to put to good use.
Christmas it has the need for glistening lights and shimmering tinsel, the best way to welcome a new start to the holiest time of the year, all special and happy.
Christmas is the time I get to make things for–and with–the people I love!!
I like our tradition of lighting luminarias, even if we travel for Christmas.
I love making things for my kids and giving neighbors gifts!
