CD weaving wall art

In our home office there are so many damaged cds and dvds just lying around.  I have been thinking of repurposing them into wall art. Today I am going to show you one way to do this. You need old cd/dvd, scissors, wool (preferably of multiple colors) and a big needle.


First step, take a wool string approximately one meter in length.  Tie one end to the cd by looping through the center hole.  Using other end of the string loop through the center hole, over the edge of the cd and back through the center hole while making sure the loops are couple of inches apart.  Do 8 or 9 loops and you should end up with star like pattern.


Second step, insert a wool string into the needle.  Weave through the star pattern alternating up and down through the loops.  Add colors as you desire. You can do this step without a needle but I found it easier to do it with a needle.


If you want you can make a tail as shown below.
