Hey! Its A here, and I'm going to show you how to make a duct tape tassel! You will need:

• two types of duct tape (I used pickle tape and cupcake tape:) 

• nonstick scissors 

• worksurface (I used a tray) 

• Your creativity! :) 

Start by putting two strips together..

 

Then cut off all excess tape EXCEPT the top part..

Next, cut little fringes all along the cupcake tape..

And when you're finished, roll it up...

And give the top a good pinch...

Now, for the handle.. (I'll be using the cupcake tape) 

Fold a strip of tape together... 

And cut off the excess ends...

Next, wrap it around the top of the tassel...

Sorry this pics a little blurry ^^

And secure it with another small piece of tape...

THE FINISHED PRODUCT!! Enjoy! ~A

7th Post: Organization!

Here are some tips to keep your craft supplies neat and handy by A. 

Tip #1: Store your supplies in a handy drawer. J, who is an artist, has all her brushes, paints, and other art things in a drawer in our room, where it is easily accessible. 

Tip #2: Keep your crafting things, such as construction paper or glue, in a large box. I keep my school supplies in a box and it easily slides under my desk or under the computer table, so it is very handy. 

That's all the tips I have for you right now! Thanks for reading! Cheerio, A.

A decorative notebook!

Hello there! Its A here. I'm going to show you how to decorate a notebook so that you have a fancy notebook now for the 2016 school year. So here's instructions on how to glam up that drab notebook if yours with just a little duct tape and some scissors! Lets just get into this..

1. Cut a strip of duct tape that's the same width as your note book, and tape it on. My standard Staples notebook width is 8" (eight inches). 

2. Repeat this step as many times as you need to fill the entire notebook front. For me, it took 5 more times. Thats 6 times altogether if you count the first one. 

There you have it! A glamorous notebook for the 2016 school year. Comment if you try this out! Thank you! Cheerio, A.
