But then Washi felt sorry for me because I was standing at their door awkwardly so they invited me in for crafts.
Today's washi related craft: mail organizers. We have three people living in our house and the mail bin sitting on the kitchen counter overflowith. I also needed some place to drop all my receipts for rebates (yeah, I'm one of those).
Supplies:
- Three clear plastic mail wall files from Office Depot (I bought one box - that had three files)
- Washi tape that I picked up at Michael's today (clearance 2 rolls for $1.99)
- Cloth "buttons" with sticky on the back also from Michael's (clearance 1 sheet for $2.49)
Really the instructions are - decorate files, put on wall. I didn't even stack my files! But anyway - picture time:

Fabric "buttons" with adhesive on the backs.
Two rows of pattern tape and one silver, plus a button for pizzazz

Totally matches the blaze orange.
This was just a quick project for me tonight. I plan to write on each in the lower right corner with fancy writing what should go in (ie - grandma's mail, our mail, receipts). I will post pictures if I don't ruin them.
To adhere these to the wall I used the sticky adhesive that came with the files. Because we have so much mail I will probably need to use the drywall screws that also came with the kit.
Reference: none this time! I thought of this on my own.
