I LOVE STICKY TAPE
The blogsphere is packed with blogs to suit all tastes. And if you’ve ever been called a weirdo because you feel a certain fascination for things that the rest of the world doesn’t seem to care about, then there’s bound to be a blogspot where people just like you spend hours and hours chatting and learning about the kind of things that you like.
For instance, have you ever spent 20 euros on a piece of cellophane you spotted in a museum shop but have never actually used? Is the ribbon on the gift wrapping the most exciting thing for you about a present? If the answer is yes, then you’ll definitely get a buzz with this blog on sticky tapes which is, to say the least, intriguing and varied. The author’s declaration of intent makes it absolutely clear:
This blog is dedicated to the art and times of sticky tape, which also goes by the names: sello tape, packing tape, gaffer tape and masking tape. It may be of interest to anyone interested in stationery, catching flies, art or design.
We’ve had some real fun looking at all the different types of sticky tape: graphic tape, gift tape, tape dispensers, patterned tapes, etc. The truth is, we would never have thought that there was so much to say about sticky tape!
