CD Cases

I've been cleaning a bit because I am moving in a few weeks. As I'm going through years of... well... junk, I have been filling my paper recycling bin numerous times, and dropping off car loads of clothes to thrift stores.

I came across a few boxes and crates of cd jewel cases from my music obsession. I found on one website that they are un-recyclable [please correct me if I'm wrong] because of the plastic they are made of.

The internet is full of good ideas on how to recycle these cd cases, but my favorite is to give the empty cases to local bands so they can sell their music without spending money on new cd cases.

Other ideas I've seen.

Post on Freecycle and give to others that may need them.

Make a calendar - give your friends some too!

Add a magnet to the back and turn them into a fridge photo magnet.


Please add your own!
