These crochet CD mandalas are not a new idea, but I find them nice :)
If you can’t or don’t want to crochet try the beaded stars on CDs.

If your CD case greenhouse is at the moment out of service, you can re-use the CD cases for a CD case photo carousel.
That is recycling ;-)

Somehow I liked the beaded stars on CDs very well, even though I usually don’t like crafting with CDs very much ;-)
I liked especially the beaded stars on CDs that are used on the main site as candle holders.

A good friend sent me the link to the entry about ‘CDSea’ (thanks, Brigitte!) and I found it great!
That may give you an idea about what to do with old CD’s ;-))

Have you ever tried to mail a CD? It should be well packed and if you don’t have a plastic casing (or don’t like them) you can simply make a robust CD case from TetraPak.
I find this a great idea!

Most of us have lots of CDs and/or DVDs to put somewhere we can find them back. I don’t especially like the CD cases from the point of view of their looks. Such a CD book can be so much more kitschy than every CD case can be ;-) (although some try hard ;-)))
