BAD# 67 & Etsy Metal Project Runway Challenge


Season 11, Episode 7: A Sticky Situation

It is another unconventional challenge and they used Duck Tape to create a prom dress look and it needs to be fashion forward. They will take their looks to a high school and students will judge it that night and their score counts for 20% of their final score.

Translation: What can I say, make a piece of jewelry using duct tape; just duct tape or combine it with other materials.

OMG, I have found my new favorite material! And I am such a pyromaniac, I just had to burn it!
Copper mesh, duct tape, alcohol inks. And gee, what better way to put a pin back on than to duck tape it!!!!
