September 20, 2012 by Stefanie Girard

If you’re a fan of making BIG, bold decorations that really make a statement, then working with duct tape might just become your new obsession! This versatile, durable, and surprisingly easy-to-use material is perfect for creating eye-catching designs on a large scale — and it’s especially fun for holiday decorating.

One of the most exciting ways to use duct tape for Halloween is by upcycling everyday items into spooky masterpieces. Head over to Craftside to see just how simple it is to transform a plain shower curtain into an impressive Halloween skull backdrop using just two rolls of duct tape: Pucker Up Scotch Duct Tape for a pop of color and Jet Black Scotch Duct Tape for bold contrast.

This project is not only budget-friendly and beginner-friendly, but it also adds a serious wow-factor to your Halloween setup. Whether you’re decorating your home, setting the scene for a party, or creating a photo booth background, this oversized skull design is sure to be a conversation starter.

So if you’re ready to level up your DIY Halloween game and try something different, grab some duct tape and get crafting. Your walls (and guests) will thank you! skull Halloween decoration over at Craftside.

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

Art can speak volumes, but it doesn’t have to cost the earth—literally. This recycled artwork, framed and ready to hang, is a perfect example of how beauty can emerge from the unexpected. It’s made from upcycled materials, bringing new life to discarded objects in the most artistic way possible.

This piece has that effortlessly cool, modern feel that I just adore. It reminds me of the kind of art I used to make as a kid—finding bits and bobs around the house and combining them into something that just worked. Only now, this work is polished, framed, and ready to elevate your home decor. It’s sustainable art with a story to tell.

What’s really great about this kind of art is that it adds character, depth, and meaning to a space. It’s not just a pretty picture; it’s a reminder that beauty can come from reuse and recycling, and it’s a nod to those of us who want to surround ourselves with eco-friendly treasures.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled materials

  • Each piece is completely unique and crafted with care

  • A conversation starter for your sustainable home decor or eco-conscious gallery wall

If you’ve been looking to add a touch of meaningful, eco-friendly style to your walls, this recycled artwork is definitely the way to go.
