Crafts With CD Covers

Put those old CD covers to good use by turning them into something new.

With MP3s and mobile devices, there is not much reason to keep old CD cases and covers except for the artwork. Crafts with old CD covers can give your favorite album inserts a new lease on life.

Funky Furniture

Use your old CD covers to create funky, colorful music-themed furniture. CD covers can be glued onto coffee or side tables with craft products such as Mod Podge.

Framed Collage

Turning your CD covers into a framed work of art is a way to keep them present and visible in your home. Arrange CD covers in a square of nine or 16, glue them onto a large piece of paper, add a frame and hang them on the wall.

Custom Coasters

CD covers can be cut down to create custom coasters with your favorite artists. Find plain cork coasters, cut CD covers down and use a craft product like Mod Podge to seal them on the cork.
