Duct Tape Beach Bag Craft

All you need for this cool duct tape beach bag is colorful duct tape and scissors! And, it's waterproof!


You need:

20 Yards Duct Tape (colorful!)
Scissors

Instructions:

Lay a 16" piece of duct tape sticky side up on your work surface. Cut another 16" piece and lay it sticky side up next to the first piece, overlapping about 1/4". Cut additional 16" pieces adding them to your project until you have 8 rows.

Cut a 16" piece of tape and place it right on top of the first row of tape, sticky sides together. Cut 7 more pieces and lay them one by one over the original pieces, completely covering them. When finished, you will have a two sided "sheet" of duct tape.

Make another "sheet" like the first using what ever color combinations you would like. Lining up the two pieces, trim all around to make a neat rectangle.

Join the two "sheets" together by cutting pieces of tape to fold around three sides. We also added a piece around the top back and front for our design.

To make handles, cut two 20" pieces of duct tape. Fold each piece in half lengthwise so the sticky side is inside. Tape the ends securely to the inside of the bag. Cut decorations out pieces and stick to bag.
