Cushioned Duct Tape Laptop Sleeve

Step 8 Final Steps

Finally, cover the exposed side edges of the flap as well as any exposed edges o of the side panels with strips of tape. I even laid down a new strip of black tape to make it look a little cleaner.

As a finishing touch, I added snaps to the flap. I did this only because I thought the flap was a little too short. Snaps are available at sewing notions stores and I used heavy duty snaps suitable for denim, etc. To install snaps follow the instructions included in the package. I also put a piece of tape over the back of each fastener (inside the bag) to protect my laptop from being scratched.

When I make my next sleeve I'll make sure it has a longer flap and I'll post photos to this instructable.

Thanks for looking.
