WashiGang Journal

Autumn is here and we’re getting excited for the cooler weather!!! Finally!!! How beautiful is Autumn in Australia? Clear blue skies, cooler days, camping trips, getting into some cosy snacks and clothes…and let’s not forget all of the chocolate that comes with this time of year!!! 

To help you get in the mood for autumn, we’ve made up a fun Autumn bucket list of fun Autumn themed activities. What are your favourite things to do in Autumn? Let us know in the comments.

We've got a special blog post today from our WashiGang team member, Bec (AKA @bec.writes). Did you ever have a penpal as a kid? What about as an adult? Bec has been collecting and writing to penpals for the past few years and she has some great tips on how to get started, including where to find penpals. It's such a beautiful way to connect with people, in keeping alive the art of letter writing, especially during times of isolation, lockdowns and travel restrictions. Letter writing is also a great way to use all of the fun pens, washi tapes and stickers!!! 

What have we been up to this past month??? We had a great month, with our first ever workshop, which sold out!!! We can't wait to do another brush pen calligraphy workshop again, in April. We've also had lots of fun new stock arriving, including a big 'new release' Happy Planner delivery, as well a few of our favourite art books coming back into stock!!! We also got our brand new WashiGang YouTube channel up and running, with flip-throughs and many more fun videos on the way. And finally - Harry, the WashiGang office chihuahua, is slowly learning to not bark at the delivery guy...sometimes...we'll get there! 

Hi Gang! We're so excited to introduce our Guest Blogger for this month - Roxanne, AKA @roxpaperstickers, a Bullet Journaling queen and sticker maker from Sydney. We had so much fun reading Roxanne's BuJo tips!!! 

We've noticed how much you're all enjoying floral STICKERS lately, so we've picked a bunch of our favourite floral stickers, just for you! 

Hi Gang, today's blog post is for all of the students (and student support teams) out there! We've asked Tiffany from Study Latte to send us her tips and tricks to stay organised with your studies! We're thinking of all you students starting the new year, with a big work load ahead of you!  You've got this - especially with some extra help with planning, from Study Latte!

Love is in the air, every time I look around! Hehe... 
A few of our staff members have been getting a little bit excited about all of the love and romantic themed products we have in the shop at the moment...(mainly Emily). So with Valentine's Day just around the corner...and a little romance in the air, we thought we'd pick a few of our favourite ROMANTIC products! 

Hi Gang!! Can you believe it's February, already!?!? 
It's our favourite time of the month...revealing our new FREEBIE washi tapes!! 

Did you know we have a CUSTOM WASHI TAPE SERVICE? 

Keep it simple. If this is your first washi tape design, keep it simple to start with. There are so many possibilities and trying to do too much in one design can lead to an unclear outcome or a bad result.
