New Tape

So. Updates, updates. Let’s start with the design. As you can see, Duct Tape Doodles has a new theme (again). I really wanted a theme with a sidebar, and I just could NOT make the sidebar appear in my old theme, Blissful Blog. So now, here’s the new theme: Matala. And the second update- I GOT NEW DUCT TAPE!!! The two colors of tape I bought are called Leopard and Electric. I’m excited to make some news tutorials with them!

Wow! An awesome craft from Baking and Blankets. This pencil case is inexpensive to make and very cute.

Baking and Blankets

I found this and it looked so easy that I had to try it right away. Guess what, It WAS super easy!

Materials you’ll need:

Candy wrappers/candybag

Scissors

Duct tape (any color/pattern you’d like)

Zipper (I used the 7 inch 18 cm ones, but that depends on the size you’re going to make your pouch)

Stapler

01

 

You can use just about any candy wrapper. I suggest the first one you make be from a plastic candy bag of some sort, it’s much easier to work with than paper wrappers, or using a bunch of wrappers for one pouch.

Cut your bag open so it’s a big rectangle.

Now turn it over and start to cover the back with duct tape. If you’re using multiple wrappers (like starburst wrappers) then I suggest getting a sheet of duct tape and sticking the wrappers to the top of it.
