CD Car Visor Transformation...heehee


Well, this was quite a simple decision. Everyone uses ipods now instead of cd's right?
(including myself and my husband).
So...what do I do with this old cd holder???

WAHAHAHAI take advantage of it of coarse!

Here's a picture of the back (those nice stretchy elastics that hook onto your visor). Ya leave those there.

And here's a picture of the front after I mutilated it with scissors and cut off all the cd slots...(which by the way I probably would have just skipped this step...but it's over and done with and it worked out just fine, but it might save you some time if you find this project useful just to skip the mutilation).
All I did was hot glue (because I swear that's all I use) the fabric over the front where the cd slots use to be. And keep in mind that it doesn't have to be fabulous fabric, because it's going to be mostly covered up anyways...this was just an old shirt.
Here's the back...(after glueing on fabric)
And then I took some black waist-band elastic and started hot gluing strips onto the front...
like so...

Adding a couple more strips...criss crossing along the way...

And some more...

AND some more...

Why?
This is why...

Because I'm a girl.
And I have needs.

Like, not having to dig into my deep 'Mary Poppins' purse every time I need something. ('Mary Poppins' simply referring to the depth of the bag...not the organization...because I'm sure Mary was a LOT more organized in her purses than I)

So now you can see I have access of ease to
Bobby Pins
Lip gloss
Nail file
Sunglasses
Fingernail clippers...
Tweezers
Teeth Whitener
Business cards...
Now I think all I have left to stick in there is a mini bottle of lotion, a travel size hairspray, some gum, and an excessively large cheesecake and I'm set! (just checkin to see if you're paying attention)
Enjoy!

Love this idea! Will surely be easier than trying to find it in the purse while driving. Hmm, I think that I have one of these lying about being useless....
