Dvd covers make great Kindle protectors. My sons and I cut out the middle section that hold the dvd in place. The case is the perfect size for the kindles. They can put them in their backpacks safely. They also decorated the front covers on their own.

You answerability use the treatment of CD Recycling, but it isn’t as easy as a plastic bottle or aluminum can, so it is time to think about reusing and finding some uses for them.

Audio CDs, DVDs, depressed Ray discs sight pretty and cast rainbows in sunlight. You burden hang them apparent doors on your tree or dangle them from your balcony. Obviously, the highest reason people are throwing over unwanted CDs and DVDs is that they aptly don’t know what likewise to do squirrel them.

Check your local council recycling site or a neighbouring districts as more and more are taking them.

I’m in Ken t where they don’t take disks or cases but neighbouring West Sussex do take CDs and cases at all their sites and recycle them into new products.

I’m making a doll house with CD jewel cases, but have no idea how, or even if, it’s possible to cut into it, to make a doorway. Any help?

I went onto Freecycle, got tonnes of jewel cases and created a 100 strong badge collection by inserting my drawings between 2 pieces of the cut cd jewel plastic using my father’s cutting drill. I then sealed them, added a pin on the back and they now hang above my bed on a big black piece of fabric like an art display!

All this occurred with zero planning…I just got started, kept on drawing and used my fave images to make tonnes of badges…
Could easily be a business…

Last night, I called my local DVD rental store, and they were absoultely thrilled to get spare DVD covers as they go through them all the time. They also use the boxes (that store 2 or more holders) thats usually used for DVD series. So give ‘em a ring :-)

I take old jewel cases, insert a plain or lined sheet of paper where liner notes would go, close up the case, and use them as small dry-erase boards for taking phone messages & writing to-do lists. It saves paper and reuses the jewel case, too.

they make great gift boxes for gift cards.

keep them, store dvds or cds you burn.

I see a lot of listings for them on ebay.

use them as a paint board for small crafts.

give them to kids to play with.

paint them and make a giant scrabble board.

Desktop Calendars! Place the cd-holder side on the table, flip the clear cover back until it can’t go any further, and insert pages for each month.
