Tape can be used in a lot of weird and wonderful ways, and art is definitely one of those ways. Whether masking or duct tape, artists find ways to create awesome art out of something as simple as sticky tape. Take a look at 14 of the most interesting ways Trend Hunter has seen tape used as art in the slideshow below.
Implications - With the recent recession hitting consumers hard, many sought to create their own products through DIY projects. This surge of interest in homemade products brought on a surge of craft couture in the marketplace.
