Duct Tape Crafts And Repurposing Ideas

They say you can fix almost anything with duct tape. However, now you can actually decorate with it! With all of the new fun prints available for duct tape you can just go wild with your design and craft possibilities.

Creative Ways To Use Duct Tape

I bought some duct tape, that looked like a shiny metal or steel. Because of the industrial look, I can easily transform things to look like metal. I thought I would have fun playing around with it in a variety of duct tape crafts projects.

Since I love to recycle, it does come in handy for transforming throw away objects into new and decorative uses.

Decorate A Container For An Industrial Vase

I made this little bud vase out of an empty mini body spray bottle and some of that metallic duct tape.

I just cut a couple of sections of tape and wrapped them around the bottle lengthwise, tucking the ends around the base and into the neck of the bottle. To add a little decorative interest, I simply wrapped a heavy gauge florist wire around the top of the bottle and added a fun bead with some thinner wire.

There are lots of other ways that you can recycle and re-purpose with duct tape. Here are just a few of the fun craft ideas.
