This project is probably just a big waste of duct tape. I do not know if the post office will even accept duct tape envelopes. So let’s begin!

I have shown two standard sizes of envelope: the smaller 3 5/8″ x 6 1/2″ size and the larger 4 1/8″ x 9 3/8″ office size. The smaller evelope uses about 3 yards of duct tape and the larger uses about 4 yards.

Hint: The really thin utility grade duct tape works well here.

1. Make a sheet (read my post about how to make duct tape sheets) 6 1/2″ by 9 3/4″ for the smaller size and 9 3/8″ by 10 7/8″ for the larger size.
2. Trim as shown in the diagram below. The bottom cuts are not really necessary if you are in a hurry, but make it look more like an old fashion paper envelope and cut down on the bulk.
3. Fold on the lines shown in the diagram.
4. Tape the two sides shut.

What if you need a different sized envelope? Just wing the proportions!

• The flap is about half the height of the final envelope plus a bit.
• The height for the cut at the bottom is just the flap height minus a bit so that the flap overlaps.
• The indents are a slightly larger bit.
• In this case the a bit is about 1/2″.
• The 1/2″ at the top just “looked right”. Leave it out if you want.
