Sponsor Highlight: The Duck Brand

We are so excited to that the fabulous Duck Brand is sponsoring the SoCal Social again this year!  They have totally transformed the concept of duct tape as boring, gray and utilitarian and made it vibrant, colorful and creative.



We love the Duck Brand because they have taken duct tape out of the garage and into crafty supply closets everywhere!  Perhaps you've heard that kids have been making wallets out of Duck Tape?  It's a very fun project for kids and grown-ups, alike.
Here's a great example from Kim at Seven Thirty Three. Her nephew specifically requested a duct tape wallet for his birthday.

Duck Tape is so fun and versatile that it was even used on Project Runway last season!

It's great this time of year for pumpkins, too!!  

I have done several, including a zebra striped, houndstooth and skull patterned pumpkin.


We love these fun pumpkins from Kim at Sand and Sisal.

And more fashion:  How about jazzing up some plain black boots with The Duck Brand's cheetah print?
That's exactly what Kaysi from Keeping It Simple did!

Jewelry?  Yep!
Check out this Anthropologie knock -off using Duck Tape and paper clips from Sugar Derby.

Or this fun, colorful bracelet...
From Heather at Dollar Store Crafts.


Let's move on to the home decor possibilities, shall we?
Connie from Measured By The Heart added some oomph to a plain lampshade.

You will have to see this Hello Kitty Cat Feeder from Plucking Daisies in order to believe it...

Valentine's Day?  Christmas?
Lots of possibilities for this wreath from Poppies At Play.

Want a whole bunch of Duck Tape ideas?

Check out this round up of projects from Saved By Love Creations.  The possibilities are just about endless!

You can visit The Duck Brand at their website, like them on Facebook, and follow them on both Twitter and Instagram.

Last year with the duck tape we got, I made trick or treat bags for my daughter and nephew! http://delicateconstruction.com/2012/10/duck-tape-treat-bag.html
