I am in the living room watching my son create several duct-tape wallets to add to his inventory of wallets. He tells me that making these wallets is not his talent, but I strongly disagree. He makes them all the time, and has supplied me and other family members, as well as some of his friends, with homemade duct-tape wallets.
Duct-tape wallets are simple, highly flexible, bend easily, can be adapted to any pair of pants, as they are not thick, bulky leather types, and, surprisingly,they last a long time, but sometimes do need some minor repair, which is easy to perform with duct tape present. It is a creation that a child can be proud of. They are not hard to make, and are unique types of wallets. All that is needed to make a duct-tape wallet is a pair of scissors, and a dollar bill to get the pocket size correct for the wallet and the duct tape itself. When I pull out my duct-tape wallet in the supermarket, or elsewhere, the cashier comments on the wallet. People have said things like, "What a cool wallet, where did you get it?", or "I like your wallet, wish I had one like that."
Prior to two years ago, I never imagined this use of duct tape. My son has opened my eyes to this, and to many other things, in his creative domain.
