Rip off a piece of duct tape about 11 inches long.
Step 2:
Take the skewer and roll the tape around it length-wise. Cover everything but the pointy end.
Step 3:
Cut five or six pieces of duct tape approximately 6 inches in length or less. Fold each one in half lengthwise.
Step 4:
Trim any excess so your strips are nice and neat.
Step 5:
Cut a nice angle at the top of each strip.
Step 6:
Make 1/8" (or so) cuts in each strip of tape, leaving about a 1/2 inch of tape at the bottom to keep it together. As if you were making a duct tape tassel.
Step 7:
Line up your duct tape in your pattern of choice (we did longest to shortest) and cut a piece of duct tape a little longer than the width of the strips combined.
Step 8:
Place your pieces of cut duct tape onto the sticky side of the single long piece.
Step 9:
Secure the cut pieces onto the long piece.
Step 10:
Take your skewer and start rolling down the length of the long single piece. Just keep rolling and wrapping it around the skewer. Super simple!
Step 11:
Put a little pressure on the bottom of the duct tape as you roll for a nice and neat finish.
Step 12:
Put a small piece of tape around the bottom - where the tape pieces meet the skewer.
Step 13:
Add an extra strip on duct tape to neaten up the end if you would like. All done! Make a bunch to hand at at your next party or use as a centerpiece.
