Binder clips have a ton of uses. I personally use them all around the house, so it's definitely not just for binders! But the binder clips that are decorated and pretty tend to be quite a bit more expensive than the generic, black ones. That's why I decided to take matters into my own hands. Using washi tape.
I'm using medium sized binder clips and am also making a holder for them. For the holder, I am re-purposing a chewing gum pack (Ice Breakers Ice Cubes). These taste great and come in cute packaging meant for car cup holders.
I use double layer on black backgrounds and single layer on white ones. Here's the after:

Hi Samah, when would I ever mind getting comments from you?? :) Washi tape is just decorative tape that is really popular these days for many things. Try going to a large stationery shop in UAE and seeing if they have decorated tape. I use it for my planner as well for indicating vacations, exams etc. I can show you a pic if you'd like!
