Here at Calico Laine you can Buy Craft Supplies for all sorts of different Crafts including embroidery, jewellery making and felting. The newest craft craze that is sweeping the USA and will soon be making its mark on the UK is Duck Tape and you can Buy Craft Supplies for this new Craft on our website and in our store.
Duck Tape originated in World War 2 when people were in need of a strong waterproof tape for repairing windows, sealing jars and repairing trucks. A medical tape was used as a base and was mixed with polyethylene coatings to adhere the tape to a cloth backing. This tape was nicknamed 'Duck Tape' as it was able to repel water easily and could be torn into strips for fast use. After the war, the tape was used in the home and the name was changed into the more familiar Duct Tape. Thirty years later the tape was renamed Duck Tape by Jack Kahl and was shrink wrapped so that retailers could sell it more easily. People who Buy Craft Supplies can now find this product amongst them and it is available in a huge range of colours.

With a little bit of imagination Duck Tape can be used for a variety of exciting projects. It is available in both plain and patterned versions and can be used to create things from flip flops to dresses, belts to beach bags. The Duck Tape can be used over cardboard templates to create items such as photo frames and party masks and can be used on its own to make flowers and even jewellery beads.
Duck Tape would be a great Craft to do with the kids over the summer holidays as they would love the amount of colours and patterns that are available including the penguin and leopard designs. It is easy to work with and children would love to cover books, frames and even their skateboards with the tape to make it unique to them. There are hundreds of ideas for uses of this tape online and with some imagination I am sure you could think of some more.
