What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A tape dispensing device comprising:
 (a) at least one spindle capable of supporting at least one tape roll;   (b) a tape diverter, capable of diverting tape from said tape roll;   (c) at least one handle fixedly connected to the spindle;   (d) a first adhesion element, configured to adhere tape to a surface;   (e) a cord guide configured to center a cord with respect to the tape;   (f) a first roller configured to facilitate movement across the surface;   (g) a second roller configured to facilitate movement across the surface   (h) a cutter, for cutting the tape; and   (i) a tape retention mechanism configured to retain a strip of unrolled tape.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the handle is configured to allow a user to push or pull the device. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a cord tensioner. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a second adhesion element. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein said first adhesion element is a bristle assembly. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 5 , wherein said bristle assembly is configured in a substantially triangular orientation. 
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein said first adhesion element is a roller. 
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a cart. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 8 , wherein the cart allows the user to push or pull the tape dispensing device in an upright position.
