Compact Disc (CD) Upcycled Crafting #freefromtrash

I’m going to get really creative on you today!

First, go to your desk and grab one of those old compact discs that you use to store your photos on.

Now, turn it over and place it on your coffee table.

Finally, gently set your drink glass down on top of it!

Bravo – you have yourself a brand new, fashion-forward, coaster!

This post is part of the Upcycled Crafting Challenge (#freefromtrash) that I’m hosting this month.  It’s part of a one month challenge to create from trash.  This challenge will hopefully open your eyes to the number of items that we still end up trashing every day that could be used by ourselves or our kids to create fun and useful items.

Note: I’ve come down with an inner ear infection which left me pretty dizzy most of the week.  I’m sorry I couldn’t come up with a craftier project for you today.  I’m saving my energy for a really fun project I’ve been waiting to finish for over a month.  Come back later and see what it is.
