DIY Duct Tape Wallet II 寬膠帶皮夾 二

Part 2 (The Accessories)


So... I hope you have been successful in making the wallet. Now I will show you how to make accessories for your wallet. You can place these anywhere in the wallet. 

Step 1:
        First, let's make the gift card holders. Measure your gift cards' lengths. Accordingly, cut six pieces of any color to the length you measured PLUS 1.5 cm or  0.6 in. One piece's length = 
card length + 1.5 cm. Stick two together, so you get 3 strips. Trim the sides for straight edges if desired. 
        Use any left over duct tape of the same color and cut thin strips to connect the 3 strips. 
Do NOT stick this entire piece onto the wallet yet.
Step 2:
        Now we're going to make a coin holder. Make a strip of duct tape the same way we did the wallet, but only use three strips. Cut three strips of the wallet's color to the length of just a little less than half the wallet. 
        Once you get to the step pictured in the bottom right, fold the sticky side in half over the non sticky side. Trim the sides for straight edges. Use tiny strips of the same color to stick 3 sides of this coin holder onto the wallet, and leave the top part open. I suggest adding a cover to it, because my coins fall out sometimes. After sticking the coin holder on, stick the card holder on top.
Step 3:
        For the opposite side of the wallet, we are going to put a business or gift card holder and an ID holder.
        Make another piece similar to the coin holder piece and repeat the steps to stick it on, but leave the left side open.
        Find a piece of plastic, like from products that have a plastic cover. Cut it to the size of your ID card. Stick this onto the wallet with the color of your choice. I used black, the second color I chose.
