How to create your own crafts from CDs with your own hands
Well, who among us doesn't have CDs thatalready tired of them, due to age, scratched, which the DVD simply refused. It would seem that what is easier - to take and throw away. But... Compact discs are an excellent material for those whose creative imagination has no limits, and who adore all kinds of crafts. This is a material that provides a wide field for activity. DIY tools: tailor's scissors, drills, an awl, a cutter for marking and needles. One of the options for cutting the disc is to use a hacksaw for working on metal: you need to work carefully, slowly. When working with curved lines, you need to spread the edges of the disc cut a little. This task can be facilitated by pre-drilling holes along the cut line. Small holes can simply be burned with a hot awl, preferably in a ventilated room. You can decorate the discs with whatever your heart desires. Here, beads, napkins, fabric, cardboard, fur, leather and much more are well suited. In general, everything that can be found at hand. For fastening, you can use wire, fishing line, and glue. Shells, beads, and stones are best fixed with silicone glue. You can create stands, photo frames, panels, and the like on the basis of the disks. Excellent crafts using the "decoupage" technique are made from disks, and if you stick a magnetic strip on the other side of the disk, you will get an original magnet for the refrigerator. In the photo, as an example: a panel of flowers on a disk. A handmade necklace made from half a disk and pasted with rhinestones and beads will look original.
