Step 2: Take your roll of duct tape and stick one end on one end of the folder.  Pull the duct tape across the folder to the other end while pushing it down so it sticks to the folder. Cut the duct tape when you reach the end of the folder.  This will make your fist duct tape row.  Repeat with the same duct tape color or switch colors and make a new row.
