Earrings, jewerly
Nice and simple to make best of all is that we do not need to make them too expensive or difficult material to get. In fact, the main material to make a CD is no longer used. Meet the rest of the materials and step by step below.

Step 1
First cut the CD and give it the desired shape (in this case a ray) with a cutter, which can heat to make it easier to cut. Then we have the way we make a small hole in the top, where the rings and insert the hooks.
Step 2
Be sure to remove the layer of silver paint with the CD'S. Then lightning and hopefully paint dry. Add decoration stones with quick-drying glue. Finally we polish or clear nail polish to polish it.

You can do all the forms you want and use all the designs that you can think of, it's easy!

Hi like the idea, i have tryed to cut cd's some time ago too. and preheated them too, but the cd break still.
tell me how can you cut them without breaking on the wrong places?
Is it because you have several cd's or lay the problem by which you cut them(kmife, or scissors) or preheated with a hot gun or a microweave?
please tell me, i like to try this out;-D
