Duct Tape Wallet

Duct Tape Wallet

Sitting around and doing nothing has never been my thing. I like to spend my time creatively, so I'm always on the lookout for fun things that I can make, build or do. My latest project are duct tape things: wallets, pencil cases, etc.

I learnt how to make these a few days ago, when I found a tutorial on the Internet. So far, I've made 5 wallets and a pencil case. And I used up almost an entire roll of duct tape :-)

This one is made entirely of duct tape. I also made two wallets with transparent pockets, which I made out of an old plastic folder.

These two are my latest macrame products: a necklace and a bracelet made in the "knotted beads" technique.

Although it's still early and spring is not quite here yet, the temperatures are already quite high and Christmas roses are already blossoming.

Spring is here :-)

These three snowdrops are growing in our backyard. They are just three of many that I have planted around the house over the years. However, these grow closest to the wall of the house, so they get plenty of warmth and sunlight every day. And, as you can see, they absolutely love it :-)

We've had temperatures up to 20°C already over the past few days and the sunlight is absolutely wonderful - for my suntan as well as for taking photos :-)
