Recycled CD/DVD Jewelry

Filed under: DIYs, Eco-tech, Wearables

Some of you may recall a company called AOL that used to give out CDs by the millions. I mean you couldn’t even piss in a Six Flags bathroom without seeing free AOL CDs. Going ice skating? Have an AOL CD. Grabbing a burger from McDonalds? Have an AOL CD. Jerking off? Hey, don’t forget the AOL CD!

So everyone took one and eventually threw it out. What a waste! Instead of chucking your unwanted CDs, consider reusing them for other purposes like Neko Design has. The Mexico-based company has created beautiful pieces of jewelry that really are works of art. The catch? Each piece is made from an old CD or DVD. Save the world, look good and have an AOL CD.

Pixelated Posey Necklace is Perfect for Mother’s Day

pixelnecklacepretty

Geeks, software engineers and bloggers take note: Mother’s Day is May 11th. Don’t disappoint Mom again this year by giving her shit like that self-erasing paper she can’t figure out with Python code written all over it (import > loveyamom.py.) Moms love stuff like flowers, gardening and jewelry. Why not get her a gift that draws influence from all three - yet - still lets her know you’re her special dork?

Enter the Pixelated Posey Necklace. A beautiful pixelated lilac hangs from a purple lace strap ever so elegantly. Plus, there’s a good chance your mother is in love with lilacs. At $25, you really can’t go wrong unless UPS breaks it.

Remember. May 11th. It’s a Sunday. Don’t say I didn’t give you the heads up…
