Jazzing up simple inexpensive school supplies with Duck Tape can add up to some major savings for your wallet! We had a blast adding pops of color and fun patterns to basic composition books that were just .25 cents a piece at Target. We also customized 10 packs of pens & pencils that rung in at just $1.
Duck Brand has some brand new products that make customizing just about anything, a blast! We used the all new Ducklings™ Mini Rolls of Duck Tape to create a DIY pencil case (with just Duck Tape, poster board, and a Velcro closure), a coin purse, flower pens & pencils, and custom notebooks/composition books. These cute little rolls of Duck Tape are easier to work with than larger duck tape especially for the projects shown above and below.
