How to Create Crafty Decorations out of Useless CD’s

How to Create Crafty Decorations out of Useless CD’s

CD’s are the most purchased things when it comes to computers and technology. Every software, e-book or guide for almost everything is now available in CD’s. Catalogs and booklets have long been ruled out. But once the compact disks have fed their purpose, they simply go to waste. We have no use for them anymore and we tend to throw them in garbage. However, these useless CD’s can be turned in amazing DIY projects after recycling. The varieties of ways you can accomplish such tasks are mentioned below.


(1) Decorative Lamps:


We know that CD’s have shinny surface that reflects light very well. Attach transparent beads or pearls all around the edges of the CD using glue. Create medium height walls using these transparent beads. Now insert a connected small bulb inside the central hole in the CD.

(2) Wall Hangings for Kids:


Kids are very fond of cartoonist wall hangings around their rooms. You can easily use CD’s to create such cartoon faced wall hangings. Attach some ribbons and use further attachments to create the eyes, ears and nose of the cartoon.

(3) Table Tops:


The shiny sides of useless CD’s can be used to create abstract table top designs after recycling. This can be done by cutting small cubical shaped pieces out of these CD’s and pasting them over the top of table to create shiny patterns.

The Coolest Built-In Bunk Beds (and DIY Brass Hardware) Christina is one of my favorite people. She is as kind, talented and gorgeous as the day is long. The last time I was in Arizona, I swung by her new house for a little tour. I’m going to beg her to let me share everything here on LGN when she’s finished (I’ll probably have to arm wrestle the editors at Elle Decor for it – it’s SO good!). In case you haven’t seen these yet, and since we were talking about cool bunk beds the other day, I thought I’d share the built-in bunks Christina did in her triplet sons’ room. So, so cool right? That railing is unreal. One of my favorite parts of the bed is the DIY hardware Christina made by spray painting pipes! I’ve made curtain rods out of pipes before, but never oversize pulls. The brass spray paint takes them to a whole new level. I love how chunky these are. Anything smaller would have been lost on the beds. See what I mean by talented?! PS Christina shared a little tour of her twin da
