A** Case
Ok, ok, I know that with all the different
portable music devices out on the market, there's less and less
of a need for CD cases. That is exactly why when I realized I
needed a CD case to hold the music for my kickboxing class, I
decided to make instead of buy one. With just a few adjustments
you can easily change this tutorial to work with a photo album
or journal. Enjoy! |

for the particular size of your CD holder. Cut matching interfacing
(you might want to double up to increase stability) and iron in
place. |
