First, you take your scraps in to a ball. Next put fresh duct tape around it. Make sure you cover all of it. Lastly play with it. Play games and save duct tape.
Two different types of cases. One that sees screen and one that's a holder. Took a lot of tape, but pretty cool. Only had silver though. Mainly prototypes. Next time ill use black and red.
First, you will want to make the beginning of a bag kind of like a pocket, in the picture it is the green, teal, or purple part. After you have that done, you will personalize the bottom of the bag with a Color Duck® Tape print, which is the cheetah, Tye-dye, or zebra part. You will also make the handle with that same print duck tape. After that, you will make a bow in whatever color you would like, then once you have made that, hot glue it on to the bag. Once you have that done, you will get a button and sew it to the inside back of your bag, then you will cut a line in the front of your bag where the button will hold the bag together. You can also decorate the outside of your gift bags with stickers. You have now finished your Color Duck® Tape Gift Bag.
So, I was thinking -- what could I make with Duck Tape next... how about a 4 foot x 3 foot portrait of Boy Scouts founder Baden Powell? I first drew the portrait onto a large board, then used over 30 different colors of Duck Tape in a variety of sizes to simulate brush strokes. It DID take quite a while... but I stretched it out over several months.
