Using colourful duct tape in creative ways is the newest craft trend. Since "ductivities" are becoming popular there are a lot of coloured and patterned duct tapes available in craft stores, home hardware stores and online.
I have been using grey duct tape to make crafts such as this rattle and to fix things around the home. When I saw the beautiful varieties of duct tape Duck Brand has I felt very excited as it helps us become more creative.
Duct tape crafts are durable, no mess and wonderful to do on our own or as a group. Although, there are so many things we can do with these creative Duck Tapes the project doesn't have to be complicated. For starters we can use it to do small creative things such as using it to decorate holiday gift bags. For this "eco-friendly activity" :) you will need...
Paper shopping bags
colourful Duck Tape
scissors
permanent marker
I reused paper shopping bags that I had.
Use colourful Duck Tape and paste it over the area you want to cover. Then personalize each bag by writing a message with a permanent marker over the tape.
Using a roll of decorative duct tape is only limited by our imagination and these types of colourful duct tape help us get started and become creative.
