Share

picture frame makeovers

I love the idea of giving picture frames a fresh makeover, especially for the holidays.  This duct tape holiday craft has many possibilities.  I added my scallop circle duct tape die cuts to this red frame to match my lime green and red holiday themed family room.

Then I added this cute red and white candy cane duct tape ruffle to cover up the tan frame.

Finally, this might be my favorite, I added silver duct tape with mitered corners to the orange frame for a modern sleek shiny look.

Duct Tape Holiday Crafts – Die Cut Use #13 Advent Calendar

Share

duct tape holiday crafts

This was a fun duct tape holiday crafts that I tried to involve my two year olds with.  However, I would recommend this for slightly older kids.  My kids did great at just tapping the stickers, after I put them on the window.  But a fun Duct Tape take on an advent calendar, nonetheless.

Using one duct tape scallop circle die cut in light green for each day, I added each number with a silver sharpie (I used red for the 25th).  I love the idea for older kids to stick on the number each day and draw a little picture next to the number or add stickers to decorate it.  Duct tape is highly durable and can easily being taken on and off any glass surface.  Great to reuse year after year.

Twelve Days of Duct Tape Christmas Ornaments 5- Die Cut Use #12

Share

Here’s my new favorite two-fer!  This fun and easy duct tape holiday crafts is #5 in my Twelve Days of Duct Tape Ornaments and #12 in my journey to find 101 uses for scallop circle duct tape die cuts.  And what a cute little two-fer it is.

I simply cut a circle in two of my scallop circle duct tape die cuts (in this cute red and white candy cane pattern).  Then I cut two small picture to fit the holes and taped them together like a picture frame.  This is a two sided ornament!  You could put a photo on one side and a message on the other.  You could also add a clear window protector on top to preserve the ornament forever.

I also just thought about a quick way to do this without having to cut the duct tape.  You could also just cut a picture in a circle and tape it on top of the scallop circle duct tape die cut.  This way wouldn’t be as clean cut, but would give the same effect.

Wouldn’t it be fun to do a whole tree of these in different colors?  Ok, that’ll have to wait for next year maybe!!

I’d love to hear from you!  Tell me your ideas and how you would turn this scallop circle duct tape die cut into a fun and easy duct tape ornament and duct tape holiday crafts!

Duct Tape Turkey

Another unique and elegant use for scallop circle duct tape die cuts… Turkey Place Cards!  I’m always trying to find fun ways to add turkey details to my Thanksgiving table.

I cut the gold scallop circle die cuts into quarters and used them as the tail feathers.  Then I cut a circle out of brown duct tape and a pointed oval shape out of silver duct tape for the head.  What I love about duct tape crafts is how easy they are to peel off and stick anywhere, not to mention the shiny effect for a little glamour in every occasion.
