Current Obsession: WASHI TAPE

I can't get my mind off WASHI TAPE! 
Does anyone else feel the same way? 
Every website, blog, magazine I look at, has it showcased. 
Solids, Prints, Patterns, Shapes, OH  MY!!!
Needless to say, I am obsessed and need to get myself some. However, I am nervous to use it. Even though it is adorable up, I live in a rental so eventually I am sure I will be moving. That being said, I don't want to ruin my pictures, posters, and art taking them off the wall. I know it is suppose to be removable but still.... HELP! What would you do? 
DO IT? DON'T IT?

In the meantime, while I make a decision, I have been researching where to purchase. I really want neon stripes, hot pink, flat black, and grey. I came across quite a few blog post on it and every one of them pointed me to MT Masking Tape out of Japan. I loved all the pictures on their site but when it came to the inventory I did not find what I was looking for. Sad face.
My search continued, until, I was scanning Etsy the other day and came across seller Crafty Japan. Cha Ching! They have every solid, print, pattern, shape, & size I am looking for! You must check out their unique selection...washi tape for days.

Now it's on to the wall layout....
Ooh Jeez, that is a whole other blog post people. :)

{styled tween}

Today, I wanted to show you a few shots from a recently re-styled girls room I did down in Carlsbad, CA. I had the lovely privilege of designing a 10 year old room from her child like "baby room" as she stated to a room that screams SHAYNA! She wanted lots of color, personality, and a place she could hang out with friends. 
I of course wanted to throw in a little bit of vintage and when I mentioned this to her mom she was ECSTATIC! She actually made my job really easy, she had a collection of vintage pieces that she wanted me to use, such as the CUTEST vintage sack dolls I have EVER SEEN! I have added them to my list of smalls I want to collect and pass down to my daughter.
I had an amazing time working with Sherry & Shayna on her tween room and with just a little elbow grease, paint, and my love of shopping (haha!) we made her room a dream come true.
I left the frames empty so Shayna was able to participate in the room design by being the one to choose pictures of her friends and family.
I am dying over these vintage sack dolls! 
How cute is this vintage loveseat? 
I chose this piece for Shayna because she can read on it, hang out with her friends,  and years to come take it with her to college. 
The best part is her mom does not need to worry about her wrecking it, or spilling on it because when she wears it out, or changes her style, all she needs is some new fabric and one phone call to her upholsterer.
