How to Turn a CD Spindle into a Light
By DIY Maven
Kayte over on Craftstylish went all MacGyver-y and turned a CD spindle into a decorative light. This one involves electricity, so care should be taken, but other than that....easy peasy! To make one of your own, you'll need to assemble the following:
- an empty CD spindle
- a small handsaw
- 6 feet of electrical cord
- wire strippers or a small sharp scissors
- a plug
- a socket
- a rotary light switch
- a screwdriver
- electrical tape
- a chandelier-type bulb
- transparency paper
- a printer
- an X-Acto knife and cutting mat
- spray adhesive
- and tissue paper
To see the entire process, follow this jump to Craftstylish.
