I can not be left unsupervised around orange duct tape when Halloween is near.

Here is a quick craft duct tape Halloween themed place mat. Ghosts and a haunted house with bats flying across the moon.

Halloween is getting close so it's time to start those crafts and decorations, or you can wait till the last minute like I usually do. I am going to start this weekend. I will be using flagging tape and duct tape for some of my projects.

I made another duct tape craft table placemat. It is patriotic on one side and Christmas on the other side. Placemats are a quick and simple duct tape craft for kids or adults.

Here are two quick and easy duct tape placemat crafts I made last night for the 4th of July holiday.  These placemats are easy and quick to make. You can put a different pattern on the back side so one placemat can be used for different holidays. The placemats are easy to clean, just wipe off with a damp paper towel and you're good to go. You can get as creative as you wish or you can personalize them for an individual.

I used outdoor clear repair tape to hold these springy pool noodles together to make them look like cupcake frosting.

Electrical tape is a Plasticized PVC film with an aggressive rubber resin adhesive in OSHA colors for cable coding, quick identification of electrical phases, circuits, feeders and branches. It is also flame retardant.

I have used electrical tape to decorate both glass and plastic containers. Unlike duct tape which shows only grey adhesive on the inside of the container, electrical tape has a clear adhesive so the color of the tape shows on both the outside and inside of the container. It is easy to apply and remove so you can decorate or theme the same glass or container over and over again. Fun for holidays, birthdays, showers or any event you want to decorate with a theme.

Here are some various plastic and glass cups before decorating:

Here is a few designs you can create in just a few minutes using electrical tape.
