I’m gearing up for an organizing project and have been collecting and saving all kinds of cans, boxes, and glass containers for it.
The one that stood out was that round cookie container. I’m all about repurposing and recycling, but what’s the point of organizing if the end result doesn’t look cute?
Decorating with duct tape has been the latest craze. And since I was recently given some colorful Scotch packaging tape, I think at BlogHer, I though, Why not use that to decorate the container?
So last week I took a few minutes to sit down and try my hand at decorating with packing tape.
It didn’t really matter to me how perfect it looked, I just kept adding rows of tape around the cylinder.
Now, that’s way cuter, don’t you think?
Since I have plenty more of this tape left, I’m now thinking of also decorating the cans and glass jars for a unified look. You’ll have to come back to see what the end result is going to look like!
Have you ever decorated with duct tape or packaging tape?

I love this! I used funky colored duct tape to decorate my son’s lunch box for the year and he absolutely loves it. Packing tape really is a cool tool to use for art. Thanks for sharing this with us!
