Adventures with Duck Tape

So this past weekend was the Marwood reunion, and I have a guy friend there who can make anything out of duck tape. He has ties, belts, even a fricking kilt made out of duck tape. So he made me this shiny silver braclet in about two mintues, and I decided to experiment with duck tape. I had this teal roll that I mostly used to tape up my plastic painting sheets. But I went on wikihow and looked up "Duct Tape Crafts" and found a ton of cool things to make. The thing I really liked though was a rose.
So I made this rose out of duck tape. And another. I wanted to get more duck tape to have a wider variety to make roses out of. I couldn't go last night, cause of thereapy and my mom wanting to rest. But tonight, right before we went to my grandma's, we ran by Hobby Lobby and I bought about thirty dollars worth of duck tape. I now have white, black, neon green, bright purple, shiny, and zebra. Gracie chewed up my teal, so I don't have that anymore.
So far I've made an all teal rose for my boyfriend, a neon green stem with purple for my sister, a neon green and black stem with purple and shiny for my grandma, an all teal pen rose for my mom, and a black stem with zebra rose for one of my best friends.
I have this infected rug burn and it's oozing so I'm gonna go put triple antibiotic ointment on it, then read, then go to bed. Maybe talk to my boyfriend for a while longer. I think he's my only reader now. Anyway, ttyl.
