Some kids might think going back to school is a drag, but the folks over at Scotch might help change their opinion!

Scotch Duct Tape is hosting a back-to-school contest that encourages teens (kids that are 13 – 18, with their parent’s permission) to use duct tape to create original back-to-school supplies and crafts. Not only can they enter for a chance to win amazing prizes (there are prizes for the top four winners with first place receiving $1000, second place receiving $500 and third and fourth place receiving $250), they can go back to school in style!

To enter, teens can submit their info and photo of their creation by visiting the Scotch Duct Tape Facebook page.  You can also learn more by visiting Scotch Duct Tape’s web site. Hurry though, the contest only runs until August 18th.

For the fun of it, I will also be working on a duct tape project or two. I am always open to suggestions so if there is something specific you would like to see me make, just let me know!
