The Many Uses of Duct Tape

I thought duct tape was this bland silver tape that was used by electricians.

Turns out I was wrong.

"Mom, I need to buy some duct tape," my nine-year-old daughter informed me.

"Why?  Are you planning some home repair project?"

"No.  I'm going to make a bracelet."

"Huh?"

We went to Target and got some "Hello Kitty" duct tape.  Yes, duct tape is no longer the boring silver thing it once was.  It comes in all kinds of fashionable colors and designs.  "Hello Kitty" is apparently one of the more popular designs.

Soon my daughter was sporting a lovely "Hello Kitty" duct tape bracelet.

Who would've thought?
