Breast Cancer Warrior

Share

It’s PINKtober!  I love that every year we all rally together in October and celebrate the survivors of breast cancer and support those still fighting.  I love that it has become so common place to see pink everywhere, even on the NFL!  One of my favorite websites and campaigns is the Ford Warriors in Pink line of clothes.  The website is well done and the clothes are cool and gorgeous.  Plus, 100% of the proceeds are donated to help breast cancer charities.  Check it out!

I’ve always been a fan of spreading PINKtober year round.  Check out my PINK duct tape wallets.  I donate 50% of all PINK sales to breast cancer research.

We are more powerful in numbers… I know we will see the cure for cancer in our lifetime… we just have to!

I’d love to hear your Warriors in Pink stories, share them here.

I also love custom orders and would love to donate PINK duct tape items for your charity events.

Duct Tape Halloween Costumes

It’s that time of year… breakout the superhero masks!  I recently made this fun and easy duct tape craft for my kids.  They were attending a birthday party and had to dress as superheros.  The best way to find the perfectly matching mask is to make one yourself.  Stay tuned for more kids masks patterns, coming soon!  I’d love to hear your ideas!

Superhero Arm Bands

Checkout another idea for Superhero Arm Bands.  My friend Lisa made these sparkling cool wrist cuffs for her little Superhero Easton using toilet paper rolls wrapped in shiny gold duct tape.  She also added elastic for adjustable easy on and off.

Whether it’s duct tape masks or duct tape arm band, these are the perfect durable duct tape crafts for dress up, duct tape Halloween costumes, and all kinds of kids fun!

Don’t Forget the Groomsmen Gifts!

Share

I love the idea of giving uniquely personalized GROOMSMEN gifts!  And not just with an initial for their name.  Why not highlight their heritage or support their favorite sports team?  I can do flags, NFL teams, College teams, or any color or pattern you wish (maybe one with a moustache or even bacon on the front!).  They have come up with all kinds of great new duct tape and I’m happy to design one that is as unique as each of your groomsmen.

I’d love to hear what other people have given for their grooms or groomsmen gifts.  I gave my husband a helicopter ornament for our wedding.  He said he wanted to learn how to fly and I told him it was the most dangerous thing ever… but that I would support his dreams no matter what.  Needless to say, he has never taken flying lessons!

How to Make a Duct Tape Wallet

Share

 

I love to craft!!!  And I know other people love to craft!  I decided to share one of my patterns for the men’s style bifold duct tape wallets so that other crafters could learn how to make a duct tape wallet too.  The best part of crafting is adding your own personalized touches to each project.  That’s what I love most!  This is a clean cut design that helps minimize sticky edges.  In this downloadable PDF, I share my tried and true tips and tricks I have acquired over the years in making this design.  I use scissors only because I have little ones in my house and I don’t like the idea of using razor blades or exact o knives.

Check back in for additional patterns I will be adding soon for my women’s wallets and business card holders.  As always, I love custom orders and would love to dissect any duct tape project and break it down into a pattern for all to enjoy.
