Kim from YouCanMakeThis.com posted this awesome idea for using old CDs at Blissfully Domestic. She made a set of three with a tween's bedroom in mind. The project is simple, and such a clever reuse of old CDs, which we all have lying around!
Project Estimate:
- Recycled CD, on hand
- Scrapbook paper or other pretty paper, on hand or $1
- Mod Podge, on hand
- Brush, on hand
- Clock kit, $4 and up
- Metal washer, a few cents
Total cost: $5 or so
