Decorative Tape Ideas this Holiday Season
Duct tape is a handy tool for just about any emergency. This adhesive is often considered the superhero of all tapes. It is used for clothing, trekking, and home improvement among other things.
Decorative or designer duct tape takes things to the next level. These are not just used for covering leaks. These printed duct tapes are designed to be useful and stylish at the same time. They come in different designs and textures. Designer duct tapes are best used for crafting and decorating. Here are some of the creative ways that you can use designer duct tapes especially for the holidays.
DIY Holiday Cards
Make holiday cards extra special by adding cute patterns and designs. These designer duct tapes come in various designs, such as star series and heart series that are perfect for cards. In using tapes for your holiday cards, you can start easy by sticking holiday photos with decorative tape in your card. You can also apply some tape strips as border and layer them as if creating a checkered design. If you want a bit more of a challenge, you can shape these tapes into Christmas trees, candy canes, or Christmas ball ornaments. Think of more ways to incorporate your decorative duct tape in your holiday card.
Festive Buntings
Make your own festive holiday buntings with decorative duct tapes. This is an easy method to create buntings without having to sew anything. Larger designer duct tapes are perfect for making bunting decorations. Choose a tape with chevron series or plaid polka dot series design for your buntings. Tape buntings are so simple to do and you can quickly decorate your home with them in minutes. Just tear some tape strips and stick them to a twine. Fold the tape over and cut into triangles or swallowtail flags. Repeat the process until you’ve completed the entire twine. Viola! You’re now ready to hang them.
Cute Bow Pens
Add some bling to your pens with some decorative duct tapes. Find a pattern or design that you like, such as butterfly series or owl series. First, cover your pen with the tape. Then, make the bow by cutting two strips of tape (around two to three inches) and sticking the sticky sides together. Fold the tape accordion style. Cut a small strip and tape it in the middle of the bow. Finally, put the bow on the tip of your pen and secure with more duct tape.
Decorative Planters and Bottles
Pump up your planters and bottles for some festive feels. You can use simple lace series tape or a polka dot series tape for a splash of color. Just stick the tape on the top of part of your planter or water bottle for added oomph. Now you can be festive anywhere you go or even just at home.
What’s great about using designer duct tapes for holiday arts and crafts is that it’s so easy. Even kids can do this! You can get creative and start getting crafty with the family right away. This can be a fun activity for everyone to bond while decorating for the holidays.
