15 Easy Duck Tape Projects

by

When Fox Chapel Publishing sent us a copy of 15 Easy Duck Tape Projects   (RRP $8.99)  to review we were super excited and couldn’t wait to get stuck into it (pun intended).

This book has been created by ShurTech Brands – the makers of Duck Tape and this book is filled with fun and imaginative things to create.

We are no stranger to using duct tape crafts in projects and have a few on our sister site already:

Clear Card Purse

This is a great book for all ages but I think it would really appeal to teenagers especially boys. Sure , some of the things are girly but a little male touch and these projects could very easily be manly. What other unusual use have you found for tape?
