Most of us have holidays traditions. We start to decorate just as soon as one holiday is over for the next one. Some people begin decorating for Christmas after Thanksgiving dinner or the next day. Some choose a certain day for the family to get together and decorate. Whenever you decorate here is a tip for creating ornaments. Since most of us have gone digital with out music, there may be some CDs lying around and instead of throwing them out, you can turn them into ornaments. If you have a stack of CDs, they usually have a clear disc at the top and one at the bottom. You have several options if you have the clear CD. You can punch a hole at the top or you can run a piece of thread through the hole so that you can hang it on the tree. If you do this, you will want to cover the CD with scrapbook paper, gift wrap, ribbons or whatever your heart desires. That way you are not searching for the hole. I did a few that way and I did a couple where I tied a piece of ribbon from the center. I then covered it with scrapbook paper and then I embellished the CD. You can embeliish one or both sides. There are no limits to what you can create. Most of the ornaments are flat and made out of paper. This makes it easier to store. I have purchased some ornaments that I really like and because they are not a Christmas theme, I leave the out all year long. They are great conversation starters and I don't have to worry about a special box for them to be stored in.
