| I made these for Christmas gifts this year. I spray painted the CD, then decoupaged scrapbooking paper and an image onto it. Embellishments were added and a ribbon to hang it.

| What a great idea! Wouldn't this be nice using pictures of family members, etc! Would make a great 'memory' tree, having ornament pictures of your kids, as they grow each year. Thanks for sharing your idea, shysue! Rusty |

| I like these! I can't quite tell what you hung the bells with-- My first thought was some type of paperclips- am I right? |
|
| Nona, your are exactly right. I found some fancy paper clips that worked just fine. |

Thanks for sharing. How did you make the holes at the bottom to insert the paper clips?
|
|
| I made the holes at the bottom of the CD with a Crop-a-Dile. It makes it so much easier than using a drill and it sets eyelets too. They are sold in most craft stores and I think Walmart has them. I got mine at Hobby Lobby with one of their 40% off coupons. |
