Tutorial - Use Fabric Tape to Makeover Shoes

http://www.sewcando.com/2014/02/tutorial-time-duck-fabric-tape-shoe.html
Refashion plain or worn out shoes in minutes

Tutorial at Sew Can Do Blog

"Today's project is one I'm very excited about because it's also a chance to share a new product I now love: Duck FabricTape.  I was intrigued when I first heard about this new item from Duck Brand Craft Tapes. Fabric that's really a tape? It sounded magical! Here's the 411 on it: It's a bit different than regular Duck® Tape since it's actually soft cotton fabric.  This means it behaves like fabric in being soft and smooth, but has a built-in grip adhesive on the back so it can function like a traditional tape to adhere to just about anything.  It also comes paper backed so you can plan things out before you peel"....

Tutorial - How to Make a Duct Tape Notebook

Use your imagination to make your own design

Notebook Tutorial at Family Crafts Blog

"Duct tape was always present in our house when I was growing up. My dad believed you can use it to fix just about anything. These days, duct tape is not only used for repairs around the home, it is used for decorating! While you can still find it in the familiar silver color, it is now available in pretty much every color you can imagine and even many specialty designs. I figured with so many kids preparing to go back to school, duct tape would be a fun way to add some pizzazz and personalize notebooks. I came up with this easy method for decorating the front of notebooks that you can use to make many different designs. Read through these directions to learn how I made this striped notebook, and then use your imagination to make one using the same techniques".... Read more

Tutorial Exchange - How to Make a Sunglass Case with Duct Tape

Velcro provides a secure closure for this colorful case

Sunglass Case Tutorial at Crafty Staci Blog

"Thanks to Totally Tutorials and Scotch Duct Tape, a box of cupcakes and rainbows arrived on my doorstep last week.  Who knew duct tape came in so many bright colors and patterns?  The rainbow, blue and lime went to good use as a table cloth for my picnic table, but what to do with the pearlized pink and the cupcakes.  I still had my mind on the sunshine, and I just bought a brand-new pair of sunglasses.  I’m a little rough on them, throwing them around and setting things on top of them, so something to protect them was in order.  I’ll be honest – when I started this project, I intended to make something to throw them in when they’re in my purse, but this turned out to be more useful on my dresser"....

Tutorial - How to Make a Dress Form with Duct Tape

You will need a helper to make this personalized form

Dress FormTutorial at So Sew Easy Blog

"You might have seen these before. At some point or another, all sewers need to fit clothes so that they look flattering and are comfortable. But if there is just you, fitting and pinning alterations on yourself while you are wearing what needs adjustment is just plain difficult and sometimes near impossible.  This is why all keen sewers love a dress-form – a mannequin with their own measurements (as near as possible) so that the clothes can be made on the model and fitted to the person who will be wearing them. Sadly my budget does not extend to importing a dress-form so I decided to try to make my own body double using duct tape, newspaper and expanding foam".... Read more

Tutorial Exchange - How to Make a Duct Tape Picnic Table Cloth


Make a bright and cheerful cover for your picnic table

Table Cloth Tutorial at Crafty Staci Blog

"Thanks to Totally Tutorials, I received a box from Scotch Duct Tape last week.  My job was to create something fun from it and share it with all of you.  Do you see my dilemma?  The blue and lime looked great with the rainbow, but the lavender and cupcake were kind of on their own.  My solution was to create two different projects.  Since the weather is finally starting to brighten up here, I really wanted the first project to be something outdoorsy.  My family gave me a fold-up picnic table for my birthday a couple of years ago, and my husband suggested making a table cloth for it.  Outdoor eating tends to be messier, and the duct tape is a great surface to just wipe clean"....

Tutorial - How to Make a Duct Tape Pouch

No Sewing Involved

Duct Tape Tutorial at Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom

"When I spotted this flame colored Duct Tape, I immediately thought it would be perfect for my little boy.  I wasn't sure what to make with it, but I bought a roll of it plus a couple more from Amazon. (They are having some new "add on" promotion where you can add similar items for less and it almost makes up for the fact they are now charging tax in Texas.)  After stepping on a several Legos, (why do Legos hurt so much, btw?) I decided to make him a little pouch to keep his favorite legos in (He likes to carry around a select few, plus it will give me a place to put the stray pieces I find all over the downstairs"....

Tutorial - How to Make a Duct Tape Shark

Interesting information in this post, and a tutorial too

Duct Tape Shark Tutorial at Naturally Educational Blog

"We’re kicking off shark week around here with a fun shark craft for kids. Sharks are the largest fish and are at the top of the oceanic food chain. These prehistoric predators have fascinated and frightened humans throughout the centuries.  Sharks are largely misunderstood and misrepresented in the media. Only four species of shark regularly attack humans. Compared with other animal attacks or water-related accidents, shark attacks are a very small risk. We put together a paper cup and duct tape shark to help us learn more about shark anatomy and get the kids excited about studying sharks".... Read more

Great Gift for a Teen
