The size is thin enough to decorate a small notebook or make a frame in a journal. Plus, you can mix and match three different slim tapes easily. It’s all black and white.

What about using this to create some easy Christmas crafts for kids, such as an advent calendar, or do fun projects in the classroom?
What has the quote to do with the number and black washi tapes?
The slim black washi tape is merely decoration. It looks like a solid pillar. The mt number adhesive tape was torn by hand to see the effect and put on top of the black deco tape.

We often don’t pay much attention to how we talk or the tone we use. However, the one who listens may get your message in a different way.
Well, necessary constructive criticism is fine. Yet, there are still many other fantastic, pleasant, and uplifting words that we can use. We can say and write gently and nicely and we still can get the messages across, right?
There’s an advertising message on the radio about stopping using abusive words. The message is basically about stop using abusive words, especially on social media.
Here’s another saying: think before you act.
What about adding the following…
