Today my boss handed me a box of old 3.5 inch floppy discs that were going to be thrown out. Since today looked like it was going to be especially quiet, I thought I'd find something fun to do with the discs.
Looking around online I've found several ideas. Here are some of the most interesting;
A shoulder bag
Pen Holder
Wallet or Money Clip
Magnet Backings
Hiding Place
Notepad
Drink Coasters
Starship Enterprise and Spaceship
Using just the supplies at my desk I decided to make something like the notepad.
I cut up paper to fit using the floppy as a guide, and used bent paper clips to hold it together becuase I didn't have any of those ring paper holders. I wanted it to be small so I didn't put as much paper in it, and only used one floppy disc. I pulled it apart and used the top for the front cover and taped the magnetic tape to the inside bottom and used that for the back cover.
It isn't professional but it kept me occupied for awhile and I like it! Since I still have lots more discs I will try some nicer crafts at some point.
