Day 22- 2 Cricut Flowers Clip 344 Days Left

I decided to make Duct Tape Sheets to pass through the Cricut.  I used Cricut Cartridge Pagoda and Flower 8 from the set. I decided to try using a glue gun to put the flowers on the clip. I have used super glue before but some of my creations have fallen off the clip since glued. My true test will be to send this completed Flower Clip on one of the girls to school tomorrow.

Day 21- Butterfly Cuff 345 Days Left

I saw a cuff bracelet made out of Duct Tape on Etsy.com. I often look for Duct Tape inspirartion on Etsy. The Duct Tape butterfly piece is 10 inches long with the back having 2 pieces of purple Duct Tape stuck lengthwise and folded back towards the from to make purple edges. The blue strip of Duct tape in the middle is 6 ½ inches long with another blue piece on the inside that is 8 inches long. The inner blue piece over laps slightly to be able to have a Velcro closure.

I layer the short blue piece on top of the long blue piece with about an inch left out at each side of the longer blue piece. Then I measured 6 holes to punch out that I would sew ribbon through.

I then took the large butterfly and purple piece and punched 6 holes in it of equal distance to cause the cuff to gather. After the Velcro was added for a closure.

Day 20- Peace Sign Hair Flower 346 Days Left

I wanted to make a flower hairclip to match a Duct Tape Hair band I made awhile back. This flower was made of 5 pieces of Duct Tape folded back in on it's self, much like you would make a simple bracelet. The middles were then glued down and then glued across the piece on the bottom, rotating the pieces in to fill in the holes. This would make a nice set for a girl’s birthday present.

Day 19- Zebra Hair Bow 347 Days Left

I found a fuzzy pink hair bow among Samantha and Sabrina's hair collection. I thought I would try to copy this one with Duct Tape. If I make it again it would be on a bigger clip.  The Duct Tape had to be cut very narrow to make this bow.

Day 18-Eyeglasses Case 348 Days Left

This was a fairly simple project. Basically it was a Duct Tape sheet folded in half and Taped shut at the bottom and the side.  Samantha has glasses, so she picked Skull Duct tape for the case.  This would be another nice,  simple project for kids.

Day 17-Barbie Couch 349 Days Left

Barbie told Sabrina she wanted to have friends over, so she needed a couch for her friends to sit on.

Day 16- Barbie Chair 350 Days Left

I had made a couch similar to this a long time ago. It was fake fur covering empty cigarette boxes.  I thought I would try to cover empty cigarette boxes with Duct Tape and see if I could make a similar couch.  I had to first find people who use cigarettes and have them collect the boxes for me.  When I asked people to keep the boxes, I was asked “what for”  I said “to make a Barbie chair”  to which I got a lot more questions and myself making promises to send a photo when the chair is done.

I first filled the empty boxes with about half a newspaper page to make the boxes less likely to collapse under Barbie’s weight (ha ha, how silly). 

 I completely covered the boxes with Duct Tape. For the back portion of the chair I put two boxes together side by side and covered them up as to not have a seam in the middle.  I have the seat part approximately halfway out from the box underneath to serve as a base.

I felt like I was playing 3D Tetris putting the chair together.  Sabrina is really fond of the chair and is using it already.
