Duck Tape

Duck Tape is a fantastic little invention. I thought of it while watching a show on supermodels, because one model in a dressing room mentioned using Duck Tape as a strapless bra - yes, models really do that. It seems that Duck Tape provides just the right lift and support for fantastic cleavage. Must be hell to remove, though. :-)

Some other creative ideas for Duck Tape are a little easier on the skin, but no less fantastic. Here's a few to try out:

Cut Duck Tape in small squares and strips, and then cover a glass jar or coffee can, overlapping the pieces. Apply two coats of latex paint, and you have a decorative container for cookies, candy, or pens. Add some ribbon, and you can give the full containers away as gifts.

Strips of Duck Tape wound around plastic or metal hangers prevent clothes from slipping off.

Instead of hemming pants, dresses, or curtains, apply Duck Tape for a secure hold. No sewing talents or alteration costs required!

Covering the soles of your shoes prevents squeaks and slips.

Make environmentally friendly building blocks by using Duck Tape and the cardboard from cereal boxes. They wipe clean and don't make crashing noises if a tower falls.

A handy tip involves taping the ends of fingers to protect the skin for meticulous work.

Some stranger entries include making your own clothing out of plastic wrap and Duck Tape. Scissors are required for removal …
