Chestnut Fairy Washi Tape

A tiny strip of storybook ornament for journals, letters, sketchbooks, and whatever else could use a little embellishment.

Natalie Andrewson’s Chestnut Fairy Washi Tape is adapted from her Chestnut Fairy Riso print, with winding botanical details, tiny illustrated flourishes, and vivid red blocks separating the repeating scenes. The result feels a little like the decorative border of an old illustrated book—only now you can put it wherever you please.

The lightweight paper tape tears easily by hand and can be repositioned or removed from many surfaces without leaving behind sticky residue.

Why We Love It

It looks like it wandered out of an old illustrated book.

The little vines, flowers, creatures, and bright red dividers give this tape an unusually rich amount of detail for something only 15 millimeters wide.

We especially love it for adding a small decorative border to a journal page or letter—or for turning an otherwise ordinary scrap of paper into something that looks like it might contain a very important fairy-related announcement.

About Natalie Andrewson

Natalie Andrewson is an illustrator and comic artist whose work is full of fantastical creatures, strange little worlds, folklore, and visual storytelling. Her colorful prints and paper goods have the wonderful quality of feeling both contemporary and as though they might have been discovered inside a particularly good old storybook.

For Rogue & Rye, her washi tapes are a lovely little way to bring that artwork into everyday making.
