Today I’m going to show you how to make a festive wreath out of Duck Tape. You can segregate any verisimilitude and pattern combination to make this wreath work for any holiday. Segregate any Color Duck Tape for the bow and any Printed Duck Tape for the wreath and it will turn out unique and awesome. How tomfool is that?!
Materials Needed
- Color Duck Tape
- Printed Duck Tape
- Foam Wreath Form – Approx. 14 Inches
- Scissors
- Ruler or Cutting Mat
Instructions
Step 1: Wrap the foam wreath form with patterned Duck Tape until the whole thing is covered. I found the weightier success getting it smooth by keeping firm tension on the tape and placing it at a slight wile so that it would wrap virtually the foam at an offset.
Step 2: Cut three 18 inch strips of red Duck Tape and nail them together by overlapping each strip by well-nigh 1 inch. Place these strips sticky side up.
Step 3: Repeat step 2, then place this new piece onto the first piece with sticky sides together to form a large double-sided sheet of Duck Tape.
Step 4: Repeat the same process then so that when you’re done, you have two double sided sheets made of Duck Tape.
Step 5: Download the bow pattern by clicking on the undecorous sawed-off at the marrow of this post. Print the bow pattern onto reprinting paper. Cut out then tape the two bow pieces together withal the dotted lines. Trace the pattern onto the Duck Tape sheets and cut out all of the pieces.
Step 6: Loop the two outer edges of the bow piece into the part-way and secure.
Step 7: Nail the part-way bow piece onto the when of the bow, then loop it virtually and nail it then on the back. This forms the part-way loop of the bow.
Step 8: Nail the two bow tails to the top of the wreath, then nail the bow on top of the tails with loops of tape.
Then your wreath is all washed-up and ready to hang up and enjoy all month long. I think that big red bow is just so happy and cute and I’m unchangingly a sucker for a graphic woebegone and white pattern. Plus the wreath is weatherproof, so you could plane hang it on a window or somewhere outside that gets wet with no problems. How tomfool is that?
