If you are of a certain age, and a certain demographic, you may remember making Christmas wreaths out of punch cards. (I can't remember a time when CDs weren't the preferred form of data storage, but my dad can...)
Sadly, those wreaths are long gone, but you can pay homage to this ancient tradition by creating your own, shinier, modern day version!

Signing UpStep 1First, Gather Your Materials.
To make this rainbow-y creation, you'll need some materials.
-Anywhere from 10-30 CDs, depending on the size of your ring.
-A wooden, plastic, or styrofoam ring, suitable for gluing stuff on.
-A Hot glue gun, with glue for it. (Although some strong regular glue would work almost as well)
-A hanger to hang the wreath on.
-A Festive Ribbon (Optional)

Yes, It would be pretty cool with lights!
I'm going to try that, as soon as I find a spare string. However, it is complicated by the fact that I don't have an outdoor plug, so it won't be happening too soon.
(Actually, there are lights peeking through the windows surrounding the door, but they don't reflect too much, and you can't see them in the photo.)
Also... do you mean real Xmas lights, like you put on a tree, or do you mean the necklace things? My local drug store sells those for about a quarter!
