Personalize School Supplies with Duck Tape®

Sharing is caring!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walmart for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I’ve been a fan of Duck Tape® for a long time.  As a kid, it was always the strongest tape that would bind anything together.  But now it comes in SO many different colors and patterns that the possibilities are really endless.  And it’s a really easy medium to work with.  I used lots of fun Christmas colors and patterned Duck Tape® to make a wreath last year.  This year, I thought it would be a fun way to jazz up and personalize some otherwise-ugly school supplies.

I went to buy Duck Tape at Walmart and got my school supplies as well.  My kids and I chose a few different kinds:  Gold, Rainbow, and BYU (of course–go cougs!)  Then we came home and got to work. I bought a couple metal pencil cases that had some hideous designs on them (Read:  Flames and a Rockin’ Electric Guitar).  These were so not my kids.  So it was seriously easy to just rip off several pieces of Duck Tape® and cover up the designs.  I used the tape liberally and tried to line up the designs best I could.  Then I used an Exacto Knife to trim the tape so it looked nice.  I like Duck Tape® because the excess peeled right off without leaving anything behind.  photo DuckTapePencilCase_zps00551677.jpg To personalize Will’s (and make sure it didn’t get lost at school) we just used the Exacto Knife to cut out the letters of his name.  Sure, I probably could have used a Cricut (because they do make Duck Tape® sheets) but this was just faster.  I put some tape on a self-healing mat then used a marker to trace his name.  I cut on the lines and then wiped off the marker.  Easy Peasy.  photo Photo2_zps0c03976b.jpg I did the same thing to a plain and boring black binder.  We will use this binder as a place to put the kids’ school work they bring home, like artwork and all that. There’s so many possibilities for school stuff, I had a hard time picking what to do.  Another idea I had was to recycle some tin cans and tape them all pretty together to make a little pencil/pen/marker/scissors caddy.    photo DuckTapeSchoolSupplies_zps9ba5e8ef.jpg You can get tons more ideas by following @TheDuckBrand!
