Duck tape strikes again



So apparently, one of the new crazes here is for coloured duck tape, which you can use for normal duck tape purposes, or, if you are a pre-teen girl, to make lots of bags and purses. Olivia's friend Katy made duck tape bags for both her and Sarah using duck tape which looked kind of tie-dyed; Olivia and Sarah went out and bought coloured duck tape to make their own bags and purses. Olivia is really keen on doing purses and she has made them quite elaborate -



separate pockets for change (where my two middle fingers are) and pockets for cards (index finger).



Sarah has made a wallet, but seems to be sticking mostly to bags - these are big enough for purse and a phone and some keys - just little bags - though she has put pockets on the inside and back as well.

It's keeping them busy - and keeping the tape industry afloat!
