So i've been trying to figure out how my little sister can create a sun catcher mobile for her friends. Like the long string ones that people can buy made of glass and beads. She loves those and would like to know how she can personalize her own.

I'm afraid the CDs would be too big, but they might be pretty hanging on the ends?

Sun Catcher - The sun's rays reflects all sorts of color off of them. Glue 2 CDs together (label sides to one another) To make holes for hanging, use a large enough needle or a nail. Use a pair of pliers to hold onto needle or nail and hold over an open flame to heat, then push through the two discs when hot enough. Run some decorative cord through the hole(s), decorate both sides, but nothing too large or you'll ruin the effect and the purpose of why you are making. Contributed by LuLu, LuLu5841@aol.com
Mobile - Drill holes in the top and string together to make a mobile.
Paint w/ oil paints.
Paint w/ acrylic mixed with multi-purpose sealer.
Paint and decorate w/ material, hang or frame
Mobile
"Tie a bunch of the CD's together and hang them off of a hanger. Pointing a light at the mobile would cause a beautiful display on the wall."
