I decided to recycle old scratched up or non-useable CD's. So I made these into centerpieces and cake toppers and sell them for extra money. Each one is different and one of a kind or sometimes I have doubles of some figurines.
The CDs are my base and then I go from there. I buy my figurines from thrift shops and yard sales and dollar stores, and I save all my scrap material and lace to glue to my base. I also have people save me their old CDs, including thrift shops where people donate their things. The owners said they end up just throwing them away, but now they save them for me.

This page contains the following solutions.
Christmas wall, window, and tree decor. Drill a hole on an old CD and tie a ribbon or a yarn through the hole. Hot glue a poinsettia/leaves or any Christmas symbol on the CD. Make a bowtie and glue just above the the flower.
This "CD" is fun to make. I print a photo sent to me. Position the CD over the center of subject and draw around the CD. Cut it. I used Mod Podge to adhere it to the CD.
In order to make the picture of this craft work, without an intense reflection, I have covered the CD with invisible tape. Your actual project will allow the shine of the CD to show and reflect holiday lights.
