Duct Tape Journal - Reloaded

So many emails, blog links and comments about the Duct Tape Journal, I thought ... let's make a Flickr Group. OK? Yes! Some of the journals are elegant and some quite hilarious. See Sara's Journals. Here's the vid again. Three cheers for Duct Tape.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I can't wait to see what else gets posted! I ended up adding collage and doodling on mine - I've even been asked where I bought it!

Are we having fun yet?

[Diana Trout]

Yes indeed, we are havin a romp!

[Diana Trout]

Its really fun, right? Such a funny little book

[Diana Trout]

Thanks for your comment, Darcy

I will be teaching my grandson to make these after Christmas, out of junk mail. They are so easy to do. Thank you for the reminder! I will post photos on the Flickr group when they are done.

I have one question, doesn't the rubber bands break after time? Does this worry you?

[Diana Trout]

Looking forward to seeing those books, Caroline! Such a great project for boys, I think.

[Diana Trout]

Hi Melissa, Yes, the rubber bands could break. You can just replace with new ones or use those hair elastics or yarn, string, ribbon if youd like. Thanks for a good question!

I didnt use duct tape on mine, I did tiny books with folded card for the covers filled with bits of old prints and tied with silk ribbon. They are so cute

[Diana Trout]

that is another great idea. You should post them at the Flickr site. I love to see everyones takes on a simple basic idea!

Thanks so much Diana! I use fabric instead of duct tape, then I make a super-extra-very easy binding with thread. But the idea of (re)using any kind of papers and cardboard is the best thing!! This is FUN!!

[Diana Trout]

What a great variation, Eli! You should post it over on the Duct Tape Journals set in Flickr! Thanks
