I used to have a pile of cracked, nasty old plastic jewel CD cases cluttering my car, bedroom, living room, office, basement, shed, garage….you get the point. The Resleeve by Sustainable Group is a green solution to this mess. Constructed of 100% recycled fibers, the Resleeve is great for storing those burned CDs, DVDs, or computer software discs in a space saving and eco-friendly way. These come available with both center hole for CD viewing and no-hole version depending on your lifestyle choice…who am I to judge. Sustainable Group makes a wide variety of similar products to satiate you dripping desire to save the world!

Now what to do with all those old CD Containers? Here’s a few creative uses and links to the instructions on how to DIY…

3. Jewel Case Birdhouse at Craftster.org:

4. Jewel Case Calendar, mini-greenhouse, & tupperware from GeekWare.com:

I like the wall art and the chandelier, those are great! I’m not sure about the recycled CD sleeves, it would probably be cheaper and GREENER to pick up a used cd book at a yard sale and keep you cd’s there. I guess they’d be useful to have a couple around incase you had one you wanted to give to someone.
