Hi gang we are now wanting any unwanted DVD films for community use so if you are thinking of getting rid please contact me first on 0121 612 3396 and I will rehome them.
Many people are no longer using DVD or video film but do not want to skip or land fill so recycle them …………. Nigel

If you’re replacing old cracked DVD cases or jewel cases, stay away from the plastic ones that will be around for thousands of years. There’s a company in the states making some cool ones out of recycled cardboard http://www.rebinder.com/cd-dvd-cases-and-sleeves . I contacted them and they now have a distributor in the UK.

These make great storage containers for unmounted rubber stamps.

I friend I work with has a cd case on his office door with a paper wheel and pointer inside. On the paper is written possible locations (meeting, business trip, bathroom, other office etc…) when he leaves the office he places the arrow onto his new location, closes the lid, and now people know where to look for him. Plus he doesn’t need to waste sticky notes.

My print club has a 12x12x12 exhibition as a regular event. we create our prints 12cm x 12xm which fits perfectly into the case and sell off each one for $12. We starving artists get $$ and people get cheep original art.

You can use 6 by putting a photo in each one and gluing together to make a cube.
or use 5, to make a planter

or, make plastic little shelves with them and use them in your spice cabinet or craft room

silicone bonds well and dries clear

thx,

As a graphic design teacher, we take donations of CD & DVD cases for students to place completed projects in. Check with your local high schools to see if they can use them.

There are some great mini photo albums you can make using DVD cases. Look online for scrapbooking DVD album ideas.
