On a recent visit to Target, I came across a fantastic display of designer duct tape. I mean, I knew they existed, but was very impressed by the abundance of colors, patterns, and prints. This was definitely a blog in the making, so I embarked upon a DIY duct tape quest and was surprised at the elegant results. With a keen and tasteful eye and by selecting appropriate color and pattern choices, upcycling items for your home using this typically utilitarian tape can end with glamorous decor.
