This kitsch-tastic patterned packing tape from South Korea's Moonhyung Woo was undeniably one of the quirkiest new items on display at this year's Interior Design Show. Printed on clear tape, the design mimics the red stitching on a baseball, and it makes for an adorable way to dress up a basic white or cardboard box. Just the ticket if you're not terribly gifted at wrapping presents!

And why stop there, when there are so many plain white surfaces waiting to be transformed? I'm seeing endless possibility for DIY flourishes in the bedrooms of your baseball-crazed wee ones:

I particularly enjoyed Moonhyung's application of the tape along the spine of this book. Pretty cute!
