My newest craft projects. After being inspired by seeing one of these pens, I decided I wanted to try to make them. They are suprisingly fun and addictive to make. Duct take come in all sorts of colors and patterns, and with a few hours effort you can end up with something like this. I was able to repurpose a small paper cutter that I have for my bookmark scrapbook paper. That made it easy to measure out the duct tape and cut small strips that were all the same size. Then a bit of folding and sticking, and you are off. A selection of these ended up at Mother's Day presents, and now the rest are available in my Etsy shop.
