If you want to spruce up your living space without spending a fortune on redecorating, give Shape Tape a try. This line of painter's tape from the creative minds at FrogTape features a repeating chevron pattern. Give your walls, floor, or furniture a fun, fresh accent with Shape Tape.

Any way you stick it (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal), Shape Tape is up to the challenge. More advanced crafters may want to stack strips of the tape to vary the width of the pattern, or to play with alignment for an edgy look. Chevron is all the rage, but if you prefer a less rigid look, Shape Tape comes in two other designs: wave and scallop. The wave pattern would look perfect in a blue bathroom, while the scallop would add dainty detail to a girl's bedroom.

Apart from the fact that it's a cinch to use, one of the best aspects of Shape Tape is PaintBlock® technology. This absorbent polymer reacts with the water in paint to form a barrier, sealing the edges of the tape and keeping the paint from bleeding. I recommend wiping the tape down with a wet sponge to remove any residue that might make your paint clump. Although Shape Tape holds firm during painting, it peels off easily when the job is done. Give your space a simple and inexpensive makeover with Shape Tape.
