music to my ears...
how many of us have cracked, mucked-up, UNRECYCLABLE plastic cd cases clogging up our desks? yours truly has oodles... but what can one do?
enter RESLEEVE, a cd sleeve that's made of rigid chip board, which consists of 100% recycled fibers (56% post-consumer/44 post-industrial). This cool idea comes from sustainable group, which makes all sorts of environmentally responsible office supplies, including binders and folders.
rumors are flying that a major record label is planning to replace its jewel cases with these puppies. what a nifty way to save space (not to mention the landfills)!
DIG it!

I am intolerant of CD and DVD packaging. Computer software packaging, with its cavernous boxes used to store a single disk (they don't usually even have the excuse of including a manual anymore), are depressing to open. It would be a big step in the right direction if manufacturers replaced plastic jewel cases with these bad boys of austere design.
There are various ways to reuse jewel cases. Turning them into modular art frames is one of my favorites: photojojo.com/content/diy/cd-jewel-case-wall-frames. I haven’t done this one yet, but I mean to.
Looks like that link got goofed. Let's try again.
