Hello DIYers!

You know that we here at BigDIYideas love an upcycle project! Taking the broken or unused items in your home and turning them into something wonderful and new is a fantastic way to practice green living while being creative and saving money. This time, we’re talking about CDs and DVDs! Do you even have something that plays a disc on it anymore?! Hooked up at least! If not, why not consider using the discs for something useful and fun!

Happy crafting!
