This one might be my favorite.  I cut strips of duct tape into rounded half-ovals and taped them to a paper cone.  It kind of looks like owl feathers.  Very autumny and woodlandy… I love it!

The third tree in my Thanksgiving Tree Village makes duct tape die cut use #9!  If you haven’t noticed, I might be obsessed with trees!  This is one of many fun and easy duct tape crafts for the holidays.  I love that this one uses my duct tape scallop circle die cuts.

I made the scallop circle die cuts in shiny brown duct tape, then cut them into quarters.  This makes a fun and easy textured looking tree.

If you’re like me, finding the perfectly elegant and non-cheesy door wreath for every holiday is a challenge.  I’ve always thought my house looks more homey and cozy with a door wreath, but it’s hard to find the best one for every season of the year.  Well, now I have a solution and surprise, surprise… it involves duct tape crafts!  I’ve taken my scallop circle die cuts and made them into a more permanent door wreath that I can add to and dress up for each and every holiday and season of the year!

I added these easy to peel off duct tape die cuts in shiny white duct tape and precision cut into these beautiful scallop circles.  Using a silver marker I added “I DO” for a fun little detail for any bride.

Duct Tape Picture Frame

Make this quick and easy duct tape picture frame to display your kids art work.  I took an inexpensive plastic display frame and added my favorite black and white damask duct tape around the edges.  I even made mitered corners to make it look like a real picture frame.  I love this instant makeover and a fun way to change out different display pieces.  I can put in a picture or show off the latest Jackson Pollock from my two year olds!

Here’s to many more days of coloring outside of the lines!

Duct Tape Crafts Tree Center Piece

Share

 

Decorating for the holidays is a great way to add personal touches to your home!  I will be sharing easy and fun duct tape crafts to decorate for the holidays.  Starting with this fall themed duct tape tree in shiny yellow.  The great thing about duct tape is that it’s sturdy, durable, easy to work with, and comes in lots of colors and patterns.  I just made a simple cone shape out of regular printer paper.  I then cut pieces of duct tape and placed them around the paper cone.  I then tied a pretty fall ribbon around the tree to finish it off.

Think about the possibilities for this with different colors and patterns of duct tape.  This would also make a great gift for Christmas or a hostess gift.  If you’re not bringing the turkey or green bean casserole, bring this fun and easy duct tape crafts tree to the Thanksgiving table this year.  I’d love to make one for you.  Check my shop for custom orders!
