CD Case Mural

Step 6On with the velcro

On with the velcro
- Cut off short pieces of the velcro.

- Open the cases and stick a couple of pieces to the CD spine.

- Peel off the backing from the velcro and start sticking the cases to the wall.

- Stand back and appreciate your cheap, recycled jewel case mural !

I find it easier to start with the bottom line and work my way up, using it as a base and using the paper joints as reference to line the cases up vertically.

This was my first instructable so please comment if I've left something out. My estimate for the cost of this project is about $20, but I live in Brazil, so that's how much it cost me to get the materials and the prints over here.

OLá. Eu achei genial a idéia das caixas de CD. Fiquei com uma dúvida sobre as imendas das páginas. Como vc solucionou isso? Não ficou aparente?

Muito bom, cara! Como você conseguiu a resolução da foto? Escaneou em alta ou tirou numa digital de boa qualidade? Ou a foto está com resolução mediana? Valeu!
