Alright folks, I’m not wasting any time here! Christmas DIYs (slowly!) begin NOW! First up, a little gift packaging love! We all know gifts look pretty schnazy when topped with bows, but how about topping them with itty bitty bows? Itty bitty bows, made of Scotch® Color & Pattern Duct Tape, and strung along a garland, to be exact! Making bows out of duct tape takes just a few minutes and it’s so simple, even the kids can do it (In fact, my niece helped me make this one!). Wrap your finished garland around a gift or a mini tree for a touch of colorful holiday flair.
And if you aren’t in holiday mode yet, this garland would be super cute for any gift you need to jazz up a bit! (Baby showers, birthdays, ooh! Options!)
Scotch® Color & Pattern Duct Tape. (I used Polka Dotes, Flakey, Pearl White, Metallic Pink and Blue Turquoise)
Scissors or X-Acto Knife
Twine
Cut a 1 1/2” strip of tape.
Fold in half, sticky sides together. Accordion fold your folded strip, three to four times.
Secure in the middle by wrapping a small strip of duct tape around and around to form a bow.
Make as many bows as you’d like, then lay them in a row in your desired color pattern. Using tiny pieces of duct tape, secure each to a piece of twine, spacing them evenly. Press the piece of duct tape along one of the creases in the bow to firmly attach each.
Now all that’s left to do is wrap up a glittery present or adorn a mini Christmas tree!

Such a cute idea Kel. I love it. And I say go for it on Christmas DIYs – I have one coming up tomorrow, so I think it’s inevitable. All of us are getting a jump start on the holidays this year.

I’ve always felt like duct tape would be super frustrating to work with because it’s SO sticky. Did you have much trouble? I’m just trying to figure out, realistically, how much tape I would need to purchase to account for mistakes.
