In my Happy Planner I used the Post-it tape ALL the time to cover the bright colored centers of the pages which I almost never liked. I’d cover tape with washi and then punch with the Happy Planner hole punch. It used to be called redaction tape for use at law firms. It was temporary white out that was used to cover up confidential information. You’d then make a copy of the redacted document and pull the tape off afterwards. I also used to make removable filing folder labels. It remains stuck on for years, yet still pulls off easily.
I have the gyro cut and love it! It takes a bit of practice to not cut all the way through but even when you’re first getting the hang of it it’s way easier then cutting using scissors. Make sure the longer point is always towards the top and turn the paper when you get to corners
Love my Gyro Cut. You need to make sure you are moving the blade towards you rather than pushing away, turning the paper as you go. It takes some practice but once you get it it's great.
I have the Fayware sticker book and have used it in my planner...I really like it! It plays nicely with several HP books and for the price you can't beat it! It was only $10 when I bought it, so it was a no-brainer for me. I agree, the scrapbooking kit is a really great deal and it seems perfect for junk journaling, which is my latest obsession, so I may have to grab one or two. Thanks for the honest review!
Love my Gyro-cut! I use it almost every week as I have a bunch of printable stickers. It does take some practice. It works best if you don't lift the blade. I love that I can turn the paper to go around a corner or get into a small space. I think the Gyro-cut works best for small spaces where scissors are hard to cut.
I love my gyro-cut! You don’t need to move your hand or lift the blade. Just let the blade rotate around the image on its own. You’ll get the hang of it.
Thank you for sharing this with us. These are so cute. I've hand cut my stickers since I started creative planning. I'm so excited to try this gyro cut.
Thank you for this!! I have 2 Fayware books that include papers and stickers. I love them! Seems there is lots of support for the gyro cut. I might have to give it a go!
I have the gyro cut and never got the hang of it. I find good scissors much easier. The only time I would use the gyro cut would be if I needed stickers kiss cut for later use. But that is very rare.
I used the redacting tape when I worked in the legal field. It’s not see through when you scan the document. The tape comes in various widths. It would be good to use to cover up stuff you don’t want to share before taking photos for IG. It’s not permanent for whiteout and correction purposes.
Japan has been doing washi and scrapbooking forever. North America is a late comer . So if you see an American company doing the same. It's most likely the American company that's copying. Printing sayings in English is newer but most Japanese kids learn English. They find sayings in English as fun and exotic as we do having saying in an Asian language.
@@nataliemarshall7158 yes it's amazing what you find when you put in either washi japanese stickers or japanese scrapbooking in Amazon. It's so popular with japanese girls and women. But beautiful things are important in the culture. A child's school meal is a work of art. I guess the idea of a plain diary or memory book is truly anathema.
@@WhiteRabbitAnne from my very little understanding of their culture, or at least historically, everything is done with mindfulness, purpose and to the best of their abilities. I think that the more intricate or decorative that a task is the more mindfulness, patience and practice is involved. Which is something that we could all gain some benefit from and perhaps subconsciously why planners and scrapbookers enjoy their craft? I think creativity of any kind gives us the opportunity to tune out all of busyness and distractions of life and gives us a mental time out so to speak. But on that note I don’t actually have any creative skills of my own so I am grateful for the companies that make all of the products and for channels like this one that provide knowledge and inspiration!!!
2:31 so maybe they're "seconds" or "off-cuts" of washi tapes? hence the budget price? They still look pretty though. Cut from the outer edge of a bigger roll so that "off pattern" is on them...
I thought I was going to love that rotating cutter thing, but honestly, it’s more of a hassle than anything! It’s kind of hard to get the exact line of where you want to cut. It’s fiddle-y for sure.
I have a straight cutter with a really fine ceramic blade. It’s a fixed blade (doesn’t rotate) and it’s not off-set. Unlike an x-acto knife, it’s very short, and will o nay cut one layer of paper at a time. I like it a lot, and very little learning curve.
Thanks for the honest review. I hand cut my stickers and saw quite a few negative reviews for the gyrocut before this video so decided not to get it. Be interested to hear whether you got it to work.m but I have a feeling it won’t be any quicker/better than cutting with scissors.

I remember the good old days of redacting and removeable file labels!
I appreciate this video. It's always nice for someone else to try out new supplies before I invest in something I may not be worth the money.

The blooming beauty sticker book I discovered last week it's been in my cart just need to go and check it out
Amazon has a knock-off of the gyro cut. I LOVE IT. 1/2 the price and it came with cutting board, different tips and mat adhesive. Best thing ever
I got mine from Amazon and I love it. She was definitely using it wrong!!
That Joychoic Journaling Kit is ADORABLE. I love the artwork through all of it. Very unique!
Great find & great haul😊
Your writing is everything!
With the post it tape it would be great as a label for moving boxes.
I think it was too warm white for the paper.
Yes I’ve already been using it!

That tape is really good for labeling freezer/refrig items
That Fayware sticker book is GORGEOUS!!! I was curious about it so thank you for this flipthrough

I love kits, this is not an exception..
I truly love the Gyro. Don’t bend your wrist!! Use it as if it was a pen!
Thank you so much for your honest reviews! I was tempted by the gyro-cut but will wait for now. 💙💙💙
I’ll let you know if I can figure it out!
Thanks for reviewing these products. The junk journaling kit seems like a great deal and fun!
I loved the washi a lot. I would definitely order that!

I love your nail polish colors! You should add the names of the color in your description box.
Next time you do a Temu order, try the Morandi gel pens, you will love them. Very smooth and great colors available and very inexpensive
Thank you so much for sharing and trying new things out! I’m curious if you’ll like the cutter!
Love the pens! Definitely adding them to my cart 🥰

Such an amazing collection of fun goodies ..
I got the exact same washi tape from Temu that was in your scrapbooking kit
How was the price comparison?
@@sharonhoneycutt5402 I paid $1.28 for the set of 5 washi tape.
Thanks for the video❣️ Loved the reviews on the items. Good tips too. ❤️
What a great selection. Love seeing new things. Thanks for sharing. 😁

The pens looked pretty good.
I love the Washi Tape. Great value. Pretty colors. I'm a pastel person. I may order it, although storage is an issue right now. Great Haul!

I thought as soon as I heard the name ‘washi’ that it was Japanese. But good to read your explanation and have more info. Thank you 🙏

I do not have any of the products that you shared, though I may look into the washi tape set. Thank you for reviewing the supplies for us.
I love that 3M tape for holding down my metal dies on my big shot. It's reusable,
Oh my gosh!!!! I hate printer problems too!! The “offline” error drives me CRAZY!!!
The worst. Restarting my router worked
Post it covering tape is often called "boo boo tape." Use it on large chart paper.
I had the same issue with washi tape I got from Temu .

Low quality stuff.
May i just say those eyeless faces seem very disturbing 😅
