Woven Duct Tape Purses!

Camper Samples

As promised, here are the results of the woven duct tape purse project I tried with some of my campers that are 10-12 years old. They worked so hard and did such a great job on these. I think they look fantastic! 

A few pictures of the work in progress.  A few campers got frustrated with keeping the woven pieces together, but once the edges were taped up they were very excited to see how the final pattern looked. 
Duct tape everywhere!

I love the pattern rolls that the camp ordered this year! 
Almost done!
As much as I love all of the pattern duct tape, I think there's something really sharp about these bags where both colors are solid.


But who can resist pink and zebra stripes!


Or Tie Dye!


Or neon green peace signs!



Of course now I want to make one for myself (even though I already have one!) Maybe ill try making the woven pattern diagonal or perhaps a drawstring backpack bag.  If you want to try to make one of these check out a previous post of mine that includes a step by step tutorial.
