It’s perfect for holding bagels, cupcakes, muffins, cookies and other small food items and a wonderful unique way to give a special treat to someone. You could also put non-food items in it. What a wonderful way to give a thank you to someone! If you are looking for recycled crafts… we got ’em!

Interesting idea, I’ve never thought I’ll have the opportunity to reuse my husband’s old CD cases! I hate to throw away that kind of waste and you just made my day!
Absolutely BRILLIANT! This is such a clever and easy idea. What a great way to re-purpose. Please come share your blog posts over at the Home Matters Linky Party! We’d love to have you for a visit. The Door is OPEN. http://lifewithlorelai.com/2015/03/05/home-matters-linky-party-27/ 🙂
