Make these pretty little photo stands using old CDs or DVDs and a couple of small binder clips! They’re very inexpensive and pretty and make wonderful gifts for just about any occasion. Give a set to grandparents. Give one to a friend. Give one to a special someone for Valentine’s day. They’re so easy kids can make them! And don’t forget to check out our CD crafts section for lots more ideas!
Supplies for CD Crafts Standing Photo
- CD or DVD
- Small binder clips
- Spray paint (for binder clips)
- Scrapbook or other printed paper
- Glue or spray adhesive
- Misc. items for decorating i.e. artificial flowers, ribbon, etc.
Instructions
Gather your supplies and trace your CD onto the background paper.
Binder clips make perfect feet! 
Spray paint your "feet" which are the binder clips. I chose a metallic gold. 
Find a photo you want to use and trace a circle around it. A cup works well for this depending on the size of the photo you want to place in the center. 
Glue on your photo and add any extra adornments you like.
Clip on your binder clip feet and you're ready to display your picture!
