Packaging materials aren’t just for packing and shipping. There are all sorts of fun crafts you can do, using bubble wrap, boxes, and of course, duct tape. Here are some easy and fun crafts from wikiHow. Read the site for detailed instructions:
- Wallet – Make a billfold wallet with four card pockets. Duct tape comes in so many colors, you can create a wallet that fits your style.
- Cell Phone Case – Worried about damaging your cell phone, but don’t want to spring for a pricey case? Making one out of duct tape is easy and cheap.
- Mini Skirt – Whether you want to be a robot for Halloween, or just want something unique to wear (I’m sure this is a great conversation starter), you can make a skirt from duct tape. The best thing about the skirt is that you can make it specifically to fit you.
- Top Hat – Yes, you can pretty much make any wardrobe item with duct tape. And what’s more fun than a top hat?
- Tote Bag – Who says a stylish bag has to cost you several hundred dollars? A duct tape tote bag is cute, cheap AND waterproof. And you don’t have to go to a shady warehouse in some back alley to buy a cheap knockoff.
- Shower Curtain – This one takes a lot of tape, and a lot of time. Good project for a rainy day!
These are just a few of many crafts you can do with duct tape. Who knew packaging materials could be so much fun?
