My daughter and I have gone a little crazy over duct tape :) This is a purse and clutch we made out of some, and the best part is that if one rips I can patch it up and make it look even more original!

Hi everyone, I didn't realize I had so many responses! My daughter and I are hoping to get some step by step instructions up soon for making the purses. My husband is a photographer, so he can take some photos for us. The gist if it is that you make a rectangle of stripes (big enough to go from front to flap) and then cover the sticky side with more tape.
Re. buying the duct tape, we got ours at the local Walmart, but most of them don't have all of the colors. You can also buy 15 yard rolls from Michaels, or if you wanna go crazy, there are some links on our site for buying more than one at a time. www.ductapegirls.com If you're gonna go crazy, you gotta have a site, right?:) There are also links to other amazing duct tape aficionados there, along with some step by step instructions for purses, wallets, etc..
WOW SO NEET LOVE IT I USED DUCT TAPE ALWAYS ON THINGS,, GOT TO HAVE IT
SHEILA.
FYI: Alaska is one of the biggest users of duct tape: there is an annual ball in the summer in Anchorage...Gowns are judged and must be completely made of duct tape!
Hey! Real cute. I'd like to make one, so could you put up directions? Thanks!
I would love it if u could send me directions
Hey I would love it if you could give me some instructions on how to make that, we have a project in class for duct tape and I would love to make something like this. Thank you
Hey can you tell me how you guys made this?
I would love to have the directions to the duct tape purse and clutch. I was going to have a 4-H project meeting and girls were going to make these. Thanks so much!
All you do is pull pieces of duct tape lay them over lapping a little so it's all sticky. Then cover it in duct tape again, so its not sticky anymore. It's like a sheet; trim your edges.
