CD Jewelry

That's really cool, my only problem here is to cut the CD ... I am kind of afraid :p

it looks really egyptian! really cute!!!

I tried this and the back crackled and peeled off. I only put it in the microwave 5 seconds. What went wrong? Do I need to spray a clear fixative on it? Also will all cs's come out the same color or is there a way to enhance the color? Thnaks, Jewlya

So putting the CD in the micro wave does contaminate the food next time u use it? Well, please tell me it don't cos I've already done it!
And cannot buy a new one yet!
Lol

Anybody who's worried about the CDs in the microwave part, don't worry. It won't do anything as long as you don't leave it in there for more than 6 seconds. I was SUPER NERVOUS the first time I did it (I think it was to make christmas ornaments) -.-

Just sit back and enjoy the show. TRUST ME. it won't do anything.

I made earrings out of CDs once...except I never used a microwave, and I used a candle, a pair of normal scissors, and a hammer and thin nail for holes. I never thought to put them in the oven or boil them...that's helpful!

I love this! Never heard about the crackling effect.
Gonna try this right away. Thanks for sharing.

Wow wow!! Microwaved Necklace!! Awesome try!!! and it looks really fantastic!!

i would love to do this... except we dont have a microwave because we have an ray burn. :C but it is amazing all the same

Yeah, the microwave thing does look scary--but if you only put it in for a few seconds, it shouldn't kill anything. At least, I've been able to do this successfully a number of times!

I just read the microwave bit, I'd be a bit worried to do that, is it safe?

Wow that is such an amazing idea, I hadn't realized what cool stuff you could make with CDs!

that looks really cool. But isn't it kind of risky to put a cd on the microwave. Maybe it's not so bad, but i'm kind of a coward when it comes to this things.
