DIY: How to Make Your Own Upcycle CDegg Pendant

This time I want to show you what one can do with old/discarded CDs and DVDs. It's another addition to the series of upcycle designs I made.
I found a box with 64 CDs and DVDs [excluded are my favorite movies] that I could throw away because the software on there was old, songs and photos where on my iMac and old files weren’t needed anymore. But throwing away such great shiny objects was not what I had in mind. No, I wanted to see what kind of simple upcycle design lampshade or pendant I could make.
So I came up with this design, the CDegg pendant. A nice and shiny piece.
You can find a full post about the CDegg with material list and photos on my blog:

Valerie on Oct 13, 2013I wondered what type of drill bit you used on the CDs? And any advice on holding them steady while drilling?
