Introduction: Duct Tape Handbag
An easy duct tape project that can be done in an evening. Last minute gift for your girlfriend perhaps?
Step 1: You Will Need:
- Duct Tape (either the Standard Grey, or Any Color Is Ok)
- Scissors
- Ruler
- Cardboard
Don't Rush It, DT Sticks Very Well to Itself!!
Step 2:
First, You'll Have to Make DT Sheets by Overlapping Them Like So.
Step 3: Cut
Cut the Sheets to Size, in This Case, 9"x7"x7".
You'll Need to Make Another One...
Step 4:
Now, Get That Scrap Cardboard and Cut It 3"x 9", and Wrap It in DT. This Is the Bottom.
Step 5:
Once You Have All the Pieces, Tape'em Together!
Step 6: Strap
For the Carrying Strap, I Just Used Two Pieces of Blue DT With a 1/2" Yellow DT for the Strip. I Made the Strap About 20". Tape It On, and Your Girlfriend's New Handbag Is Done!!

I made one but changed the design to be rounded instead of squared. It was a pain, but it turned out awesome! I now see many duck tape projects in my future.

You vould probably use the bottom of a kleenex box for this

you could just take a paper bag and cover it with DT and make the handel.

I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to make a Planner out of Duct tape? Also- How do you reinforce your bags?
