got quite a few freeby c.d's know i can decorate and hang on tree, but someone else said something about turning them into snowmen???? and does anyone else know of anything else i can make with them for 8 children?, some are 2yr old so maybe just decorating is best for them?

I have an Usborne Christmas ideas book and they made snowfalkes and stuck them onto cd's then hung them up

you know where you kinda fold a circle of paper and snip away to make a snowflake??!!

Hope that helps lol

they looked nice when done!

Hmm! You again! I won't bother repeating myself then!

Although.... Glitter glue looks fab on 2 cd's stuck together!

The ones with gitter glue look really nice hanging in a window actually. They are all sparkly and pwetty. The snowman is easily turned into a Father Christmas as well, if you change the colour and shape of his hat, red nose and white foam for a beard.

ds made a strange thing in his craft class - the cd was a base for a pin cushion made like a little hat,with cd as brim- fabric over a foamy bit in centre for the pins - a bit odd -gave it to my mum !

For the benefit of anyone other than the OP who is interested to know what I did with my old cds, have a look on my profile!
