a few years ago i was gifted a vintage teal vinyl mid-century sofa named "big teal" that came (appropriately) with a roll of perfectly matching teal duct tape... I really had not given it much thought of how the teal duct tape came to be- until now.. the colors are dazzling!
Holy smokes...a rainbow! I have been lurking around your blog because there is so much to be inspired by! ... I love the bookcases that you post since I am currently trying to get my books in order! The mysteries of duct tape... Thank you for another eye opener!
that maroon at the top-right looks divine... although i have no idea why one would require colored duct tape. maybe i am failing to see the opportunities...

At my high school all of the engineering kids would make clothes and accessories out of the colorful duct tape. I can't imagine it being very breathable.
Hate to be the irritating kid in class that tries to top everyone but . . . .LL Bean offers Camouflage and PLAID duct tape!
