How to Make a Pocket Wall Organizer

Start by using your CD to trace two circles onto one piece of paper. I used green for these.

Cut out the two green circles and set them aside for now.

Next, cut a small piece of ribbon, form a loop, and secure it to one side of your CD with hot glue.

Now, use the CD to trace a single circle on a different color paper. I used pink for this piece, but instead of drawing the whole circle, I only drew up to about ¾ of the way up the CD. On the top part of the disk, I drew a curved line connecting the two sides so that it makes it "open" as shown.

Cut out the pink piece and set it aside.

Now, you will glue the two pieces of green paper onto the CD, with one on each side, sealing the ribbon between the green paper and the CD for extra security.

On one side of the pink half circle, you will add glue just to the outer edge, then flip it over and secure it to one side of the CD, pressing until the glue is dry and sealed on all edges. This creates the "pocket".

Now, you will decorate the pink part of the pocket. I added rhinestones around the outside edge of the pink pocket and glued a fake flower onto the center of the pink pocket.
