When I was a kid, duct tape only came in one color - gray. Now when you go thru the duct tape aisle, it is like there is a rainbow in that aisle. Duct tape now comes in dozens of colors, and some even have crazy patterns on them. Duct tape isn't cheap, I think it is about $5 a roll. However, now some dollar stores are selling a cheaper duct tape, so you can pick up duct tape there for cheaper. Duct tape is extremely strong and it is also waterproof. You can make duct tape sheets by sticking them together side by side. You can then use it like fabric to make amazing things such as bags, wallets, book covers, bracelets, and almost anything else you could think of.
