(duct) DUCK TAPE JOURNAL and PEN

Hello, I'm Stella and Bella's cousin.

I will show you how to make a duck tape journal and pen.

Tools: scissors

Supplies: spiral notebook, Bic pens, Duck  tape.

First wrap the cover and the back of the notebook with duck tape.

Next it's your choice to duck tape the inside. You want to make your duck tape even.

Your journal is ready.

Now let's make a fun and easy pen.

Grab a simple pen.

We found that you don't want to wrap the duck tape around and around.

A better idea is to go vertically.

The pen MUST be sitting at the edge of the tape.

Then roll it in the duck tape.

Your journal and pen are finished.  You are ready to write your secrets and ideas.

Scarves

They're soft, they're comfy, they're cozy, and warm. Scare Jack Frost away with this easy to make scarf.

steps below:

First cut fleece 9'' wide and 60'' long.

Next trim off the salvages.

Last snip 3'' tall and 1'' wide fringes.

Shrugs

A Shrug is a comfy and gorgeous item to add to your outfit , and it's fun when you make it yourself.

Steps to follow:

First cut 1/2yd of fleece.

Next trim the salvages.

Now use a yard stick to measure where your buttons will be.

The first button is 2'' from the end, the rest are 4'' apart.

Then hand sew the buttons on.

Use about 15 buttons.

Last you snip your button holes to match.

One more option is to cut fringe.

Cut it the same as the scarf.

This shrug can be 3 THINGS!

It can be a scarf,

it can be a shawl

or

a shrug!

Crochet

This is a fun fashionable project, and it doesn't take long at all. These are the steps to follow:

First crochet chain stitch until it reaches the length of 6 feet.

Then tie your knot at one end.

Next tie your two ends together to make a necklace.

Last twist the necklace and wrap it around your neck two to three times.
