Today is National Cellophane Tape Day. Artist Mark Jenkins makes sculptures out of tape, and teaches you how on the website TapeSculpture.org. It’s also National Grape Popsicle Day. 11 year-old Frank Epperson invented them in 1905, when he left a stick in his grape soda and it froze. Popsicles were originally called Eppsicles!
