Did I mention that the tooth hasn’t fallen out yet?
When it does I am really tempted to buy this. It’s a little pricey, so I might head over to a bead store soon and see if there isn’t something I could make that would be close. Other wise it will be ordinary money left by our Tooth Fairy.
I am a collector of stuff. And I am always on the look out for the perfect stuff.
I have been looking for the perfect tape dispenser for years.
"Why?" you ask.
Well, I’ll tell ya.
I love to tape stuff. And in different ways. So, I was actually in search of two perfect tape dispensers or one really really cool tape dispenser. I actually thought that out there somewhere would be a perfect one tape dispenser that could hold…and…dispense (hence, the name) more than one kind of tape. I mostly use regular tape and your basic double-sided tape. But I have been known, on occasion, to need poster tape, and also have found fun tape with alphabets or crayons or other pictures on it.
"But why the fuss," you ask, "wouldn’t any ol’ tape dispenser work?"
Ummm…no.
First of all I would rather buy refills of tape and not the whole thing. Second of all sometimes the tape comes off the dispenser to easily making it difficult to pull off pieces of tape virtually one-handed (this was the problem with the last dispenser I bought). You (or is it just me?) should want a dispenser that is sturdy, doesn’t have the tape falling out too easily, or a faulty tape cutter thing (problem with the dispenser about 3 dispensers ago). And….(this is important) it should be pretty. Not cutesy pretty, but…you know…nice to look at.
And today I think I found it ALL. I found where function meets pretty!
Introducing….dun dun de duh! My new tape dispensers…
Double-sided in the blue/purple on the left and regular in the orange on the right!
Functional because the tape is enclosed and won’t be falling out when I pull it out. The cutter part is in there nice and sturdy. And they are elephants! Hippos are still my favorite animal, but you have to admit that elephants are a fun idea and make it nice to look at. Just gotta go find something to tape now.
