giveaway: DIY Duct Tape Wallet

I have a Duct Tape Wallet Kit to give away. It’s from myDuctbills and comes with instructions, pre-cut duct tape pieces and six colors that let you make a custom design. All you need is scissors.

Are you wilting in the gray pre-Spring stretch of days? You need this to distract yourself with. Leave a comment here and you might get lucky.

The giveaway is for the traditional silver wallet, but you can also get black, pink and camo kits at the site.

Fine print:
– I’ll choose the winner on Friday morning, Feb. 15th at 10:00 a.m. PST. I’ll ship the wallet as soon as I can, this might depend on working off-hours postal machines.
– You don’t need to leave your real name, but do leave a valid email address. I’ll be the only one who can see your email address (just don’t put it in the actual comment box as well). I’ll write to get a shipping address when you’ve won.
– If you have never left a comment here before I’ll need to approve it before it publishes so don’t worry if your comment doesn’t show up right away. That said, you might not end up being the comment number you see as you’re typing, so know that if you want to say “lucky number 351!” you might not be comment number 351. I don’t know why it works that way, and I’m sorry, there is very little certainty left in this world and this isn’t helping any.
– If I have not heard from an initial winner by Feb. 22nd I will choose another winner.
– The winner will be picked by the cold, unfeeling random number generator.

    Need a wallet! I look like a fool pulling out crumpled bills (of the 1$ variety (actually worth 1/2 a Euro!) from the nether regions of my purse/knitting bag!

    My 14-year-old made his own wallet a few years ago with his own design and lots of duct tape. It goes through the wash nicely. Over and over again.

  • 12 Laura // Feb 14, 2008 at 5:29 am

    Awesome! I’m in.

  • 13 Kelly Sales // Feb 14, 2008 at 6:22 am

  • 23 Cashmere Addict // Feb 14, 2008 at 2:15 pm

    Just found your website… and can’t believe you’re doing a give away for a duct tape wallet! How very cool. Duct tape is the best stuff on earth, I once made my radiator hose last an extra 10K miles using duct tape! :-)

  • 24 Sally // Feb 14, 2008 at 2:15 pm

    A duct tape wallet, super cool! I just started reading your blog and am over here in Portland. Thanks for all you do.

  • 25 Nana // Feb 14, 2008 at 3:10 pm

    ME, ME, ME…please. This is wonderful!

  • 26 Elsa // Feb 14, 2008 at 3:11 pm

    Oh, mercy! I’ve been scouring the local shops for a duct-tape wallet for my beau; I know if I sit down with a roll of duct tape and an X-acto knife, it will all end in tears.

    Of course, I hope I win the kit, but if not, I’m only too delighted to buy it!

    Thanks!

  • 27 Kayla // Feb 14, 2008 at 4:09 pm

    Yessss! Every single year at Bumbershoot I almost buy one of these from the ductbills people, but then I some how reason myself out of it by the end of the day.

  • 28 Jacob // Feb 14, 2008 at 5:21 pm

    I’ll be more than happy to accept a free kit. If I don’t get one I may have to just make it from scratch!

  • 29 kelli // Feb 14, 2008 at 5:37 pm

    Fun! I’d love to win.

  • 30 Storme // Feb 14, 2008 at 5:59 pm

    I would make this for my Dad — or who knows… I might like it and keep it for myself!

  • 37 Lillian // Feb 14, 2008 at 9:44 pm

    My hubby needs a new wallet, and he didn’t like the last one I got him, so maybe he’ll be okay with one I make, sorta from scratch. ;)

  • 38 Vanessa // Feb 14, 2008 at 10:39 pm

    Ooooooooh! I would love that!

  • 39 miho // Feb 14, 2008 at 11:48 pm

  • 42 Lara // Feb 15, 2008 at 5:26 am

    Oh a giveaway! I hope I am not too late to enter. My friends and I once made a wallet out of gaffer’s tape.

  • 43 Margret // Feb 15, 2008 at 5:55 am

    So creative! Just happened by, got to love it.

  • 44 Kate // Feb 15, 2008 at 7:43 am

    Do you know duct tape works on warts?

  • 45 Samantha // Feb 15, 2008 at 11:39 am

    Lurking for years, though I think I may have commented once on your two-color knit pancho way back when (the one you only have to “knit” using round needles). Happy you’re happy in Seattle – would love to buy you a drink next time you’re in Portland.

  • 46 Susie // Feb 16, 2008 at 8:29 pm

    i know my comment doesn’t qualify. i just want to thank you for this post. this is so cool!!!
