From CD case to hanging picture frame
This is a great way to recycle spare CD cases and is an inexpensive craft gift for
Mother's Day.
Materials:



1 or 2 slim jewel cases (CD cases)
ribbon
craft glue
scissors
packaging tape
2 pictures of child 4x6 (10.2 x 15.2 cm)
anything to decorate your frames such as flowers or
buttons
Steps:
1. Cut ribbon into 4 pieces that are 5 inches
(12.7 cm) long.
2. Dab a little glue in each corner on the inside
of the cover of the case.
3. Slide ribbon under the inside tabs (and on top
of the glue) of the case making a border.
4. Place picture on top of ribbon and secure with
tape. You could stop there and make it a
standing frame.
5. For the double picture frame hanger, repeat
steps 1-4 on a second jewel case.
6. Cut 2 pieces of ribbon equal lengths to use to connect the two frames.

7. Secure both ribbons to the back of the jewel cases
with tape. Make sure there is equal space between
both cases so your picture frames hang straight.
8. Cut another piece of ribbon for the hanger. Loop
from one side of the top frame to the other. Secure
with tape.
9. Now decorate the front of the frames.
How cute would it be if in one of the
pictures the child was holding a sign
that said," Happy Mother's Day ! I
Love You !"
