Have Duct Tape Crafts become popular in your neck of the woods?

Asked by cookieman (41630points) January 27th, 2012 from iPhone

My daughter loves crafts. Always has. She’s nine.

Last Summer she started making wallets, billfolds, and picture frames out of duct tape. She told me it’s all over YouTube. So she shows me, and there are hundreds of videos of kids, teens…even adults demonstrating how to make all sorts of stuff out of duct tape. Book covers, flip-flops, bags, even clothing. Some of the creations are pretty amazing.

Duck Brand duct tape, it turns out, has dozens of colors and patterns of duct tape. In rolls and flat sheets.

One (fully grown man) on YouTube referred to it as the “Duct Tape Revolution”.

My daughter tells me she’s the only kid in her class making things out of duct tape.

So I ask you, has the “Duct Tape Revolution” landed at your door? If so, have you (or someone you know) made any cool items out of McGuyver’s favorite tape?
