Have any of you actually used up an entire roll of washi tape??  I have some Pink Paislee rolls that are from 2010, and I know some of my MT tapes are from before that, so in almost 10 years, I have NOT used up a whole roll or have even come close! Yet, I still need to buy more every now and then.  |

Maybe 1! It was a red chevron that the pattern went the length of the tape, instead of across it. I got it from Hobby Lobby, and fell in love. I used all of one roll, and bought 2 more. I have only used a small part of one, and none of the other.

I have a couple of times. It is usually for rolls that I use liberally in a specific project.

Twice! One was a cute roll of tickets that I used for amusement park layouts. The second was an ugly roll that came in a set. I used it for holding things down on my page or when die cutting.

I'm close to using up my yellow chevron Bella Blvd tape. By "close" I mean I've "used half". I bought another roll too just in case I actually used it up. Like that will ever happen!

Not yet... but I'm close with one roll that I use to tape stuff down.

I let my daughters have access to my washi tape and ended up with a huge dent in my stash. I finally had to put away a few of my favorites.  |

Yup! I small Simple Stories roll (those are so short! It's deceptive really...36 ft in 3 rolls...so 12 feet each...by far the least on each roll of any brand when you look at doodlebug, mme, bella blvd, AC etc)
And I used up a "yucky" roll that came in an old kit: I used it on the back of LOs to hold thread after I sewed! Now I have to decide on another tape I don't mind wasting!

Not so far - but I'm close to using up 2 rolls now!

Never ever. Most of my rolls have never even been used one time. I like washi tape, I buy it, and then never use it.

Several. The kids used them to decorate posters, using the washi as a border. And I work for a theatre and use the tape a lot there as well.
But I still have dozens more that are full rolls or almost a full roll!

Yes but then I almost never use washi tape except to tape dies down while running through the Big Shot or AccuCut. I also use it to mask when I'm using my TH Spritzer or my air compressor. I bought 26 rolls of Valentine Washi at Walmart 2 or 3 years ago for 10 cents a roll! Yep, most of my tape cost $2.60 plus taxes for the whole thing!  I was thrilled to get so much tape and know I wouldn't run out no matter how much I use for holding down dies. I gave one roll to a friend and told her to use it like Post it note tape and one to my husband. I use it liberally but not sure if I'll ever run out! I've never used it on a layout yet but used some on a card challenge to use several designs on one card. |

Personally I've never used up a roll of my washi but my girls certainly have! I have tons but there are many rolls I don't want them to even touch because I love them so much. So stupid because I have so much and I know I will never use it all.

Nope, and I've used a ton of it on gift wrap. I've only ever used up washi strips.

Never! But then all I use it for is to tape sewing threads on the reverse of my LO's and to tape my eye shut while I sleep (Graves disease) hahaha! I'm not sure I've ever used any on a LO?

Wait, wait! I just remembered that I did use up one roll!!
I use the Erin Condren Teacher Planner. It has seven periods and my school has eight. I used a strip of washi each week to show my lunch/recess period. I did that all last year and for almost the entire first semester this year. The roll is now gone. I need to bring another roll to school. I just put it on a regular tape dispenser on my desk. I probably use more than I think to tape things for students too.

I've used up multiple rolls.
At first, I had around 4 rolls of washi in neutral colors and I used the crap out of them.
Then, I had a few albums that were color schemes and used a bunch that way.
Finally, when I get an ugly roll or something that really doesn't jive with my style (in a Freckled Fawn kit) I use it on the back of pages to cover brads or stitching.

I have! One, that I can remember. A white with gold dots washi.
I used to only use my washi for actual scrappy purposes, but now I use it every time I need a little tape to hold up a reminder paper, to temporarily hold things together, etc. I'm actively trying to use it.

I never have. But give a roll to my kid and he'll take care of that in a couple of hours. His door . . . his bed . . . random bits of paper.

Oh my gosh...tons. When I get duplicates in grab bags or ones I don't like in kits, I give them to my kids, specifically my oldest. Boom! Roll gone in like 5 minutes. He uses them to make roads on the floor, stick things to the walls, to connect his dining room chair to his siblings or to denote that it's his and he doesn't want to share that chair, etc. In terms of my own usage, however? I've used a couple, but mostly ones that I deem ugly that I use to secure packages to cardboard or chipboard in an envelope. |

I think I've completely used up one. It was from SC (oranges and pinks, ampersands), and it was a pretty stingy roll as I recall. But it's possible I just donated or gave it away when I got bored with it, which is what I usually do. I do have some that are very near the end of the roll, but of course at that point I try to save it. I do try to use them up though!

I always use up my washi! Especially the ugly ones - I use it to tape my paper down to my silhouette. Sometimes my paper will want to slide a bit if the stickiness is wearing off on my mat.

All the time. I think I have 4 rolls of washi that are really big that I haven't used up.
I use washi on the back of envelopes to pretty them up.
I keep a roll of washi in the kitchen to label leftovers, stick up a recipe on the cabinet so I can read it without it taking up space on the counter, etc. I am always running out of "kitchen washi". The stuff in the Target $1 spot is good for that.
