Awesome idea posted by DecoratedChaos blogspot.com. Take a simple piece of wood, paint and distress edges with sandpaper. Add a photo with upholstery tacks and a strip of lace. Love it!

Repurpose CD’s as Party Invitations
I found a simple way to make unique party or wedding invitations using cd’s and labels. Print or order labels, attach them to a cd and mail them out to friends and family.
I purchased a huge stack of cd’s, five years ago, with every intention of using them ALL by burning all of my favorite songs on to them. Of course, like many of you, I still have a pile of them stacked next to my computer, and what a great way to make use of them.
There are labels you can purchase and print anything you want on to them, then just peel and stick to your cd. You can also order cd labels online with different themes some of which are shown here. If your ambitious enough add songs that coordinate with your party theme.
Simple, easy and great way to repurpose those left-over cd’s!
