Practically almost all the objects that we can get rid of, we could give them a second chance for a new use. An example of them would be CD's, which as a decorative element work very well due to their reflection effects that tend to be striking and beautiful. And for that very reason today, I wanted to give you this new opportunity, turning the CD's into a couple of fish to decorate. Full of color, joy and sympathy. It is a very simple craft to do, which will only take about 20-25 minutes. I show you how I did it!
Materials
- 2 CD's
- Two color crepe paper
- Permanent marker (preferably black)
- White paint
- Brush
- Scissors
- Zeal
Our Process
- Take the permanent marker to draw the flakes on the reflective part of the CD. You can draw them irregularly or not. I have made both, one making them more aligned, and the other following the contour of the CD quite a bit. This way you can appreciate the difference. It goes to personal taste in the end.
- With the help of the brush paint two circles white. If you prefer, you can use some plastic eyes and glue them. It is optional of course, but I did it that way in part because the ones I had are small.
- Cut five pieces from the crepe paper. Two with fin shapes for the top and bottom. Then a rear fin and what will be the mouth of the little fish. Finally, a looser rectangle, almost as wide as the CD.
- With the help of the scissors, cut 5 pieces of tape to stick what you have cut out, as can be seen in the second image. The rectangle, if you have a part left, you can cut it out. Of course, before placing it, make folds.
- Finally, now that the paint is dry, take the marker and draw the eye your little fish!
Repeating the same process for the other, you will have your fish pair ready! I hope you liked this craft, and don't forget that you can subscribe to the blog!
