Description so my friend was telling me how her ipod kept getting banged up and how she really needed to get a case but that she couldn't find any she liked. so then I suggested to her that I make one out of duct tape. she loved the idea and I not only made her this case but I made her a duct tape wallet and then made another wallet for a friend who liked it!

she didn't really have many specifications so I got to experiment a little with how to make the case itself. She really liked the pink and black color combination best so that's exactly what I gave her. I'm pretty proud of how this turned out (even if it seems really old to me now... I could make such a better one now.) and she really liked it a lot so that's all that matters I guess! as long as the customer is happy!

This is really cool! I have some duct tape items also! It would be cool if we trade wallets! I have some on my account but a better view would be in the link below! Please let me know if you want to trade

Thank you. uh well I could try to explain. It was partly trial and error first. This was the second case I made actually. If you want I can explain it to you to the best of my ability. It's been a little while since I made it but I believe that I remember well enough to explain. Actually....if I can find the time I may make one for my own ipod and if you want I could try to take some progress pictures. That way you'd have more to understand than just my poor written explanations. haha. but if you're still interested in knowing I can try and explain some through words on here!

lol. why thank you! well if you have a different mp3 player of choice I could adapt for that too. I have an ipod and so did she.... so yeah. but hey I'm experimenting with all sorts of things. I could probably even start making other things and not just mp3 player cases and wallets. I really have meant to make myself a purse but ummm.. I already have enough projects that I haven't finished so that one's still on the list of "need to do in the future". but if you can think of some other item that you would like to have made out of duct tape, let me know and maybe I can make it.
oh and if you ever want a more creative wallet than the one you have, let me know. I feel a little bad that you only got little green streaks. plus yours is old and I think i've improved slightly. I'll hurry up and finish my phantom one so I can carry it to school and show it to you. (it's made all nice and differently and whatnot.) hehe. oh well, whatever you desire Shishou!

Ooo, a Phantom one would be HOT. ^_^ And my wallet is perfectly fine! The clear tape on teh outside has started coming off a few times, but it's not gonna explode on me or anything.

And no duct tape case would fit my mp3 player. It's wee tiny thing. Tee hee!

yeah you might want to take off the clear duct tape. I don't think I'm gonna mess with putting that on anymore because it keeps like rolling and then coming off when it's been in my back pocket too long. I didn't put any on nick's wallet. but hey whatever. oh when I finish the Phantom (hopefully tonight!! I don't have too much left to do on it.) then I shall definitely show you it's awesome hotness.

...like how tiny are we talking? because again I can do custom stuff... I would just have to adapt. but hey it's fun experimenting and not doing the same exact thing every single time!
