Materials Needed

duct tape - in various colors/patterns

Instructions

My girls wanted to personalize their backpacks and required composition books, so they used the new different patterned duct tape to customize their back packs and composition books. You could go crazy and change a lot or cover a lot of space, or just add a few pieces to make it just "different enough" not to look like anyone else. I thought they were very clever.

Tips and Tricks

  • They were careful to place the tape slowly so it did not bubble or crease
