You're into crafts and looking for a fun new project? There are many fun ways to covert floppy discs into a unique craft.
First thing is first.
You need to remove any files that your floppy discs may be holding.
If you still have a computer tower you can insert them and then burn them onto a CD or DVD to save.
If not, you may have to send them away to a data recovery business and let them retrieve the information.
You'll need to make them aware that you'd like the old floppies sent back with your new CD in case they normally throw them away or keep them for themselves.
There are a few ideas to covert floppy discs that can get you started.
• Floppy Faces.
Covert floppy discs into wacky faces for the kids.
If you're floppy discs are already the color you want them to be then good.
You can also paint them.
Go to the craft store or dollar store and buy goofy eyes, pom pom/ cotton balls and yarn for hair, and beads for noses, mouths, and accessories.
Make a whole family of floppy faces to entertain your kids while the sit eating in their high chairs! • Flash Drive and CD holders.
This is kind of a pun but it's funny and clever.
Make a base or bottom of a few floppy discs.
Then build and glue the four walls.
This does not have to be big whatsoever.
If you plan to covert to a flash drive holder, a base of 4, 3.
5" floppies will do.
Also use these little carriers for erasers, pens, and post-its.
Top it off with some paint and stickers to fit the décor of your office and you've got some cheap new items in no time.
• Fun Floppy Frames.
Get some super glue and paint.
Glue together the floppies on their thin sides.
On the back, glue a floppy at an angle so the picture frame can stand up on a table or dresser.
o For Girls: Paint hot pink or purple and pick a picture of your best friends at the beach or shopping.
Glue it to the front of the frame.
Now add some accents around the floppies for a boarder.
Grab an old Barbie shoe and secure it to the frame.
Even find some pennies or dimes to add to the shopping experience.
If you went to the beach, glue on some small sea shells and a Barbie swim suit.
o For Boys: Covert floppy discs to a blue or red frame.
Add a picture of the boys playing basketball or a guitar.
Keep it simple.
Bold primary colors and one or two accents can create a boyish feel that'll fill the room! Once you covert floppy discs into your fun and unique crafts, display them proudly in your home.
You can even try to sell a few online or give them away as gifts! Use your creative outlets as presents to your loved ones.
Covert floppy discs after you've saved all the data from them and most importantly, have fun with it!
