Duct Tape is for Girls
My daughter was entering her teen years when she discovered duct
tape. Her first wallet was interesting, so we looked around the
web for more ideas. Since then we have made ties, purses, rings,
belts etc. out of many colors.
When we did a search we found some funny sites that covered
household tips, prom clothes and art, but there was nothing out
there that was a semi-serious, easy to navigate website for teen
girls. We knew we had to do one ourselves.
Our site was easy to put together with 1&1 hosting, and right
now we links to crafts, photos, supply stores, tips and books on
the subject. The domain name was easy enough to come up with too
www.ductapegirls.com Word of mouth gets around fast: we've had
165 visitors since we put it up in the second week of January.
The best thing about this has been having more time with my
daughter, working together, coming up with new craft ideas and
having a laugh. The second best thing is that now I can have a
new duct tape purse whenever I design one.
