That stripey duct tape pencil case

A practical case to carry a few pens, pencils, mascara perhaps.

You will need:
- cardboard/postcards
- several duct tape, for colour and variety
- cutting mat and blade and ruler

Step 1 Preparation

4 pieces of cardboard needed to reinforce the pencil case.

The sizes I used are:
A) 8cm x 17cm (base)
B) 8cm x 11cm (top flap)
C) 8cm x 10cm
D) 8cm x 1.5cm

Postcards are lightweight and suitable for this.

A cutting board helps to quickly measure the pieces.

hey, next year when i'm in middle school i will be able to have a small case for pencils

[wompuscatgilly]

maybe add magnets to keep it closed??

[wildfire759]

Magnets would probably be perfect since you could tape over them, and they would still work.

this is pretty cool...you can probably add velcro so that your pencils don't fly out. just a thought.

I have made a lot of crafts like this ( i am a duct tape master) and a nice thing to add on would be an alligator Clip or a belt strap so you may have it more stable in you carrying case. I find it annoying because the things i have always move around and fall out. I have also made Duct tape and Foam armor, guns, weapons, crafts, and tons of other things.
