DIY Gemstones from CDs! (and Plastic Bottles)

[@Sonia-sunshine]

Love the inspection of the bottle bottoms 😂😂

[@Randomona]

Hehe, true story 😆😆

^got me to subscribe for that alone. The creator's videos are great, regardless.

[@sherryroberts7716]

WOW! What would also be cool is to paint the pupil of a dragon or tiger on top of the dvd to make it into a scary eyeball! Great for top of spell books and other journaling.

[@Randomona]

Totally! Nice idea 😉

[@silvermoonshineX3]

I have been looking for a way to make gemstones without resin or buying stuff...this is absolutetly genius and costs only an old CD and maybe a beloved pfandflasche. Great tutorial, thank you!

[@Randomona]

I'm really glad you like it! It's fun to craft with things you have at home 😉

[@mystery-kid7659]

2:02 the different disc colors are the difference between a real disc and a fake/burned disc, if you want the blue ones, just buy some cd's and put something on it, they will turn blue (at least 10 years ago that was the case)

[@Randomona]

Oh that's really good to know! Now I want to burn some CDs, hehe

[@amberm2777]

CD가 빛의 반사에 따라서 굉장히 아름다운 무지개 스펙트럼을 뽐낸다는 것을 이용해서 이렇게나 멋진 공예품으로 다시 제작하다니 정말이지 좋은 공예품이다. 안쓰는 CD가 이렇게 좋은 작품이 될 수 있다는 것이 정말이지 놀랍다.

아이디어가 마음에 드셨다니 정말 기쁩니다! 좋은 의견 감사합니다.

[@windydawn58]

Cd's are easier to cut if you dip them in a pan of very hot, almost boiling water, for about 3 to 5 minutes then cut them while still very warm. They usually wont split or crack while cutting them. If you see the CD start to warp in the very hot water, dont leave them in quite as long.

[@Randomona]

Thanks for the tip!

If you have blank CDs or blank DVDs of any size or shape, don't destroy them. Send them to me. I still use them. Also, if you have any RETAIL movies, TV shows, or music videos on VCD or DVD, send them to me as well. Please don't destroy them or throw them away! I will put them to use.

[@Widdekuu91]

Marvelous method, I'm certainly going to try this! I've got my own method for fake gemstones, which includes aluminiumfoil (the shiny side) and blue glasspaint. If you crinkle the aluminiumfoil beforehand (and flatten it out again) you get a disco-effect. I use aquarium-stones and clear glue to make them into gemstones that way. Bytheway, I noticed the glue was German, but your accent sounds a tiny bit like Dutch. Are you German or Danish, perhaps?

[@Randomona]

That's an interesting technique, I like it! Yes I speak German, I'm from Austria :)

[@stephie4ever]

I think your way works better...not as fiddly! Ty for sharing!

[@luciaearena504]

[@Randomona]

[@dracofirex]

Hm.... I'll bet you can take the foil from the broken CDs and cut it up into small pieces, then stuff a bunch into the bottle bottom and fill it with glue.

[@Randomona]

Worth a try! :)

[@azaleawinchester]

How do I make the swirl and inwards ones? Can you do a tutorial for that to? I understand if you can't I'm just asking 🥰

[@lollipoplance]

Would the transparent hot glue method from your later video work on the DVD, or would the plastic melt and ruin the holographic effect?

[@Randomona]

I like that you're thinking outside the box! Unfortunately I have tried it a long time ago and it didn't melt the plastic, but the holographic effect kind of went away and I was just left with a silver effect. So I dont think it works.

[@lollipoplance]

@@Randomona ahh too bad, I thought something like that might happen. I really like the holographic effect from the discs, but do these plastic bottle gems hold up to wear and tear, or do they need to be treated delicately?

[@Randomona]

They are not super delicate, they can take some pressure and if they don't get scratched violently on a regular basis, I think they're fine :)
