Don’t dump those damaged CDs!
The ideas on how to recycle damaged CDs, creating gifts and decorations with them, can go on forever.  Here are two more:

Bookmarker.  Cut a damaged CD into a heart, a flower or a butterfly.  Punch a small hole; (two for the butterfly); string colourful beads; tie a knot around the end beads so they don’t fall out.  Give this to someone who loves to read.

Photo “frame”.  Punch small holes in some damaged CDs.  String them together.  Paste photos on the writing side of the CDs – feel free to cover the holes in the middle of the CDs with your photos.  Hang in a window.   

Schools can use this to display children’s art…please pass on this idea to a teacher.
