Inspirational CD Collages

As I wrote about my reader Anitra’s unique CD Photo Coasters, I wondered, “Why not use inspirational pictures and quotes or sayings on CD collages, coasters, hangings?”
This idea of recycling (or upcycling, as some call it when you use a discarded material for art) CDs can go in many directions. CD collages might consist of:
- Family photos, as Anitra described
- Inspirational sayings
- Scenic and still life photos
- Reproductions of one’s paintings
- Found objects and memorabilia
- Flower petals and leaves
- Fabric to give a quilted effect
- CDs attached to form a multi collage
- Any combination of these
Have you recycled CDs for art? For coasters, wall hangings, photo frames, and more?
