These dream catchers made with upcycled unused CDs have been turning out so great!
This one was spoken for almost immediately… I put out a request on the local “Buy Nothing” facebook group in my area and several people gave me stacks of unused cd/dvd discs.

This looks really cool. Are the colors I’m seeing simply light reflecting off the CD?

Great idea!
I had a neighbor break them up and rearrange the pieces for a tabletop under resin that is stunning.

Beautiful! I never would have thought about asking for unused cd/dvd disks. I have several of my own that I had planned to break up for mosaic, but haven’t done that yet.

Makes me wonder what else old CDs could be used for.
I think someone posted once about trying to laser them and I think the verdict was “don’t”… let me see if I can find that.
Edit: hmm not exactly but this one kind of covers it… they’re a bit too melty to laser much:

Correct. Too melty. The aluminum is not an issue, it’s the plastic they’re embedded in.
We use them as targets at several hundred yards. Very satisfying “explosion”.

What a great idea! I’ve got a stack of CDs I’ll never use, perhaps I could make some colorful anti-deer yard art. (2 CDs shiny-side-out, with acrylic frame should be weather-resistant, yes?)
thanks for the inspiration.
