You'll need two colors of duct tape. An x-acto knife. A press stud or Velcro. A pair of scissors.
A ruler. A zip log bag and a cutting sheet. And a credit card.
Cut 8 strips of duct tape about 30 centimeters long.
With these strips you are going to make a duct tape fabric
Fold over the edges.
Fold the fabric in half but leave a little at the top.
Cut the edges off, so it's about 28 centimeters long.
Fold it in three equal parts. Cut the small rectangle at the right off.
You can use clips like this so the fold will stay better.
You are going to cut a piece about as long as the top edge of your wallet, in this case:
28 centimeters. Cut it in half.
Now cut the rectangle a little bit smaller, so it will fit on the left side of the wallet.
This is going to be a coin pouch.
Cut the zipper off the zip log bag. Cut a part as long as your rectangle.
Cut a strip of duct tape as long as the left side of your wallet. Cut also one that is
a little bit shorter than your rectangle. Cut these two strips in half.
Take a part of the zipper, closing side facing up. Lay it down at the rectangle like this.
Take a short strip and tape it to the zipper and rectangle.
Now take a long strip and stick it on the top. Fold it over the edge. Cut the side edges
off.
Take the other part, closing side facing up. Put a short strip at the bottom and a long
strip at the top. Now put the two zip log parts together. Place the rectangle on the
left side of the wallet. The duct tape will stick to the wallet, fold it over the edge.
Cut pieces as long as your middle part. Take two and stick them together. You need five
of these sheets.
Cut the sheets as long as your credit card.
Cut a piece as long as your sheets, and cut it in half.
Tape two sheets to the middle part of the wallet.
Stick a piece of duct tape to the bottom of the right part.
Now tape two sheets to the middle part of the wallet.
Cut a rectangle out of the plastic of the zip log bag.
Cut pieces of duct tape. The first one is 1 centimeter wide. The other is as high as
your wallet and the third is as high as the front flap of your wallet. They are all cut
in half.
Open up the wallet and put the tiny pieces of duct tape on the edges and fold them over.
Take the long strip you cut in the beginning and put it on the top of the wallet.
Place a short strip at the left of the wallet, and fold it over the edge.
Take the part of the press stud with the point. Poke a hole in the duct tape in the middle
of the wallet. Put the point of the press stud trough the hole.
Lay down a third sheet on the middle part and your transparent part on the right.
Get the other long piece of duct tape and tape it on the bottom edge. Fold it over to
the front.
Take a short piece and tape it on the right side, fold the long piece over to the front.
Take the longer pieces and tape them at the sides of the pockets.
Cut

Tape the back pocket to the inside of the wallet this way.
Cut a piece smaller than the height of your wallet.
Put the other side of the press stud with the hole on the sticky part of the tape. Poke
a hole trough the duct tape into the hole of the press stud.
Put the two pieces of the press stud together, and close the wallet. The duct tape will stick
on the right place. Now your wallet stays close itself.
