Make-Your-Own Geek Christmas Ornaments: Part 7


Another project with diskettes! In part 4 of this Geek Ornaments series I showed you what I did with the diskette boxes, and here’s a project idea for the diskettes themselves.
How to: Diskette Present Christmas Ornament
You’ll need:
- old diskettes
- old ribbon
- glue
- buttons or any Christmas embellishments
Pick 2 diskettes that compliment the colourscheme of your tree. I chose red and green, but blue and white would be a nice combination for a more modern tree. Glue the 2 diskettes together, aligning them so that the holes match up in the corners. Tie a loop of ribbon through the hole for hanging. Glue ribbon around the centre to create the look of a present. Glue buttons or other embellishments you have lying around to the ribbon.
Hang and enjoy!
