Below you will find many Ideas for Cassette Tape Arts & Crafts Projects & Activities with Cassettes & Tapes for Children, Teens, and Preschoolers.
Business Card Holder - - Made from an empty cassette case! Perfect for Father's Day or birthdays. Lots of possibilities! This one is made with rocks but you can choose anything to match your photo. Makes a great.pngt for Mom or Dad
Business Card Holder - - Learn to make a professional business card holder.
Cassette Tape Barbie Doll Halter Dress - You use just a small amount of cassette tape to crochet this outfit. Use the link above to choose a purse or shoulder bag to finish off your recycled Barbie outfit. I hope you all have as much fun making this outfit as I did. Enjoy!
Cassette Tape Clutch - - The tutorial found here has detailed pictures and walks you step-by-step through the process to sew a handy zippered pouch. Now you could just use the pouch alone for a cosmetic bag but I used it to slip inside my crocheted clutch shell. I then hand-stitched it in place and wallah you have a nice finished clutch.
Cassette Tape Evening Bag - - This week’s free recycled crochet pattern features an evening bag crocheted using cassette tape and ribbon yarn. The front flap is V-shaped with a Gold button embellishment and a Velcro button for a closure. I had some materials left over so I decided to make a little cozy to go inside the evening bag. You could use the cozy to hold your ID or a credit card. I did not put any embellishment on the front of the cozy but one could be added if desired.
Cassette tape tutorial - - A few days ago I posted about my cassette tape wallet and how it’s held up over the past 10 months, and I promised a tutorial. Well here it is!
Cassette Tape Wallet - - Tapes degrade over time... the sound sucks on most of them, and my tape player is broken. BUT they still look cool!
Cassette tape wallet! - - I really like the concept of these wallets, but not enough to pay $39(+4 s/h) for one.. especially since I have so many cassette tapes sitting around the house with nothing to do!
Cassette Tape Wallet / Money Clip - - I'm sure many people have thought of this idea, or may have even made it and I just haven't seen it online yet.
Cassette tape wallet, then and now - - About 10 months ago I made a cassette tape wallet after I was inspired by some that I saw online. They were on sale for $43 and the first thought in my mind was, “I can make that for less!” So that’s what I did. Here’s some pictures of it when it was freshly made.
How to make a cassette tape wallet! - I saw a cassette tape made into a wallet here a while ago and i knew i had to do one for myself.
Make a Cassette Tape Tote Bag - - Lanzadora posted this kitschy cassette tape purse at Instructables. Finally! A way to proclaim your love for the 80s and all things mixtape AND bring a bunch of stuff around town with you. I especially love the use of two cassette tape holders filled with unraveled tape serving as the bottom of the handbag.
Make a Desk Accessory for Dad’s Day - - Neck ties, power tools, golf balls and picture frames – while many dads look forward to receiving these traditional Father’s Day .pngts, a handmade.pngt carries special meaning far above anything that is bought from a store. Little ones eager to honor dad on his special day this month will have a great time working on this simple project.
Recycled Cassette Tape Granny Square Bag - - This week’s bag is a recycled little purse crocheted from plastic tan grocery bags and brown cassette tapes. This was an interesting and challenging project.
