The idea started with a Lifehacker post a loooong time ago. It just never materialized until last night.... I had to go to Target to pick up some stuff, and, like any time I go there without Mom, I got lost. :P Ending up in the duct tape aisle (don't ask how), I spotted the awesome pinkness, remembered that post, and *lightbulb*!! I just had to make a duct tape wallet! :D Here are the photos I took to chronicle my conquest. 8-)
The starting materials
8 pieces of duct tape... the 'fabric' of my wallet
Cutting it to just the right size (good thing I didn't cut myself!)
Assembling all the different parts....
It's finished! Like the flowers? I think they add a nice touch. I need to add something else though... those were all I could find at the moment for decorations.
Two pockets to the right and a clear pocket for - a Starbucks card! Although I have my drivers license in it now.
And the mess to clean up when I was done. Now... if I can do it, anyone can do it - so give it a go! Twas a blast to make. :D
oooooh! I like! :-) I would make one, but 1) I already have a wallet so 2) I don't need a new one (this one matches all of my outfits :mrgreen: ), and 3) it would probably fall apart in two days because of the things I put my current wallet through! Cool idea though!
ReplyDeleteDo you still have a link? I think I'll try making one... :)
