This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Duck Brand® for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.
This year with one child in school and one homeschooled I have had to adjust a few things around here. I wanted to make a fun homework station for her so that she could have her own space when she gets home. Most of her homework is on the computer so I had to set this all up around our computer desk. Check out how I used Duck Tape to customize her homework station.
DIY Homework Station
I’m going to share a few different projects that you can do with Duck Tape. You don’t need to use these colors. These are the colors that worked for our project but you may have a different preference. With all the varieties of Duck Tape out there, the options are endless.

- Canvas
- Duck® brand duct tape , Color Duck Tape®, and Printed Duck Tape®

Start by writing your quote in pencil and then trace in sharpie.
Wrap your borders in Duck Tape.
Cut out flowers and draw on Harry Potter inspired accents to finish the project.

DIY Duck Tape Pencil Pouch
My daughter’s school doesn’t let her bring in a pencil box so we decided to have fun while adding some personality with this pencil pouch. It’s great for her desk at home and fits perfectly back into her backpack.
You will need:

- Scissors
- Ruler (optional but helps if you want straighter lines.)
- Start by folding over your tape on itself.
- You will want 6 strips of your base color and 4 strips of your accent color.
- Cut them so that they are all the same length.
- Lay them flat and tape them together in the design you like. (You will do 2 separate sheets. You will have base color, pattern, base color, pattern, base color.)
- Tape the two sides together.
- Flip it inside out.
- Fold the top over and take top corner so they are stuck together.
