Duct Tape Vest

Ok this is kinda simple, for the most part your going to be layering ducttape. First grab some old news paper, a dark colored marker, scissors, a shirt that fits you well, and a ton of duct tape.

Fold the shirt in half (hot dog) and tuck in the sleeves to the inside until you get to the seams.
Then place the folded shirt onto the news paper and make an outline of it X2.
Now, unfold your shirt, but keep the sleeves in and draw the outline on another sheet of newspaper.
Now you have the pattern.

Step 1

This part will probably give you some trouble, but next make long strands of duct tape, folding them over so sticky side with sticky side and  long enough to be able to fit the pattern. Once you have enough strands your going to over lap the duct tape with more duct tape. Kinda like a criss-cross pattern.

Once you have enough  to cover the pattern, place the pattern over the duct tape and outline all three pieces (separately ). Then cut them out.

This is a great 'ible! I'd just like to add that if you are a girl you should cut the front arm holes deeper and extend the front panels if you intend to be able to button/zip up the jacket. But awesome 'ible my school is doing duct tape day for homecoming and this really helped me out! c:
