Weekend Project: Duct Tape Father's Day Hammock

Hey kids! Haven't got your Father's Day gift yet?  Is a tie just not doing it?  How about this super cheap and easy DIY Duct Tape Hammock?  All's you need is some duct tape,  two wooden dowels and some rope and you're on your way!  And with all the beautiful colours duct tape comes in these days, it could even look rather awesome! Do note the comments in this DIY that we're sending you to;  one reader recommends tying additional ropes to the dowel in between a few of the red and white strips to take up some of the load that may cause the dowels to bend.  Anyway, not a bad little DIY and we're sure any Dad would be chuffed!  Click here for the how-to!  Happy Father's Day!

Last day: "Father's Day & Affordable Art Market"!

Today is the last day of our Pop and Pop Art online market at Poppytalk Handmade! We loved the art and Father's Day ideas! The online shop will remain open until approx 6 pm tonight (if you still want to check it out) and then we'll be cleaning up things over the weekend to get ready for our next event, "Here Comes the Sun" which launches Monday just in time for the first day of summer next week! Yay summer! Thank you to everyone who participated and for buying handmade! See you Monday!
