Guest Yediyd Posted June 22, 2007 Report Posted June 22, 2007 I saved all my cardbord milk cartons...cut them in half, duck taped them together to fit in my top dresser drawers...now I have all my socks and panty hose in neet little cubicals and not all helter scelter in the drawer. I did this in the den with veriouse size empty food boxes and we find our tape, sissers,pens,pencils,and "what nots" all in one spot. I got Soooooooooo sick of the junk drawer!!!!!!!!! I also made a cardboard doll house out of duck tape and cardbored boxes and a fabric and walpaper sample book that I got from a paint store. (they give the old ones away) We also decorated the doll house with cut outs from the junk mail that floods my mailbox. My kids and I had hours of fun making that doll house and my 14 yr old daughter still has it. I think it was WAY better than one I could have bought in a store and we had so much fun making it together that she keeps it now just for the sentimental value of it. Also, we made play dough out of flour and water and made allthe furnature out of little boxes, fabric scraps and the dough...we even made dishes and play food. When it dried, the kids play with them over and over for hours at a time! Very little money was spent and this is a fond memory my kids will charish. Quote
StrawberryFields Posted June 22, 2007 Author Report Posted June 22, 2007 Awhile back my son broke a 16 oz candle on the step coming into the house. It was more of a big crack and I placed it into the pantry. The other day I pulled it out and wanted to burn it. I noticed the crack and decided to wrap it with some thin black duct tape. The candle is stripped and so it just looks like the bottom stripe is black. Sometimes I just amaze MYSELF. Quote
StrawberryFields Posted September 6, 2007 Author Report Posted September 6, 2007 Oh WELL, Here's a new ONE! http://extra.msn.com/offbeat.aspx?GT1=10357(scroll down to the duct taped face...) Quote
Canuck Mormon Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 I think it's hilarious that you can use duct tape for almost everything EXCEPT DUCT work Quote
Doctor Steuss Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Oh WELL, Here's a new ONE! http://extra.msn.com/offbeat.aspx?GT1=10357(scroll down to the duct taped face...) Darwin may have been onto something with the whole "evolving from monkeys" thing... Quote
Jbs2763 Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 here's the real question... what AIN'T it used for? then again, i'm a redneck truck driver Quote
Dr T Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Who would do that to themselves?! Quote
pushka Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Who would do that to themselves?! A robber I believe...from what is written underneath the video clip... Quote
Dr T Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Thanks Push. I saw him and heard him talk. My question remains, "Who would do that to themself?" Quote

onyx Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 On the drive home the tape started to really bug him so he started to take it off inch by inch OUCH! When we got home and got him to the doctor he sure got a good laugh when he saw his perfectly smooth tummy and chest with some of the tape residue left. Who needs hot wax anyway??? lol Here's another one.... My brother is singer/entertainer. His amps and speakers get really knocked about with loading and unloading in transit to gigs. Before too long they really get to looking shabby. He covers them in duct tape...especially the damaged areas. Then he repaints them in jet black gloss paint. They look brand new on stage. Quote
