Adorable DIY Duct Tape Wallet

The number of duct tape projects out there is pretty much endless. Here, we show you how to make an adorable duct tape wallet, but you can make clothes, tools, safety gear, handbags and more with duct tape. Theres even a story about a guy who repaired an entire plane with the stuff. As such, its not surprising that there are so many wonderful duct tape crafts for kids out there, and this dragon duct tape wallet is definitely one of them.

Legend has it that dragons guard huge caverns filled with gold. Seems like a pretty good way to keep valuables safe, if you ask me. Why not have some fearsome creature protect your lunch money too? Our dragon duct tape wallet will not only keep your money and cards safe, but it will look cute while doing it!

This craft for kids (or kids at heart) is perfect for a rainy day or birthday party activity. There is no wrong way to design a wallet dragon, whether you add glitter, googly eyes, or fabric to make your wallet even more magical looking. Make sure to have an adult on hand when using a razor and scissorsas well as if your dragon comes to life and decides to attack!

Supplies for this duct tape wallet project:
- 3 spools of duct tape (solid, pattern, metallic its up to you!) We used blue, yellow, and red
- Scissors
- Straight edge cutting blade
- Permanent marker
- Velcro
- Paper cup
- Self healing cutting mat (or a surface that you dont mind getting cut up)
- Straight edge ruler

Step 1: Make The Duct Tape Fabric

All good wallets need a strong foundation, and whats stronger than duct tape? Not much. Lay out supplies on your cutting mat and lay the straight edge ruler horizontally over your work space. Rip a strip of your base color tape (we went with blue) and face the non-sticky side down on your mat.

We wont need the strips to be longer than 9 inches, but its better to go longer than shorter, so cut them all at an even foot to be safe.

Step 2: Lap It Up

Take each strip and overlap it horizontally over the strip above it. Make the overlap about a inch. Repeat till your fabric square is about 6 inches high.

Step 3: Repeat other side

Repeat this step again, this time sticky side of the duct tape facing down, thereby sandwiching your completed side. Just like you did the bottom layer, stagger the second layer of tape onto the first. This will help create a strong base for our duct tape wallet.
