Loved this. I just tried it and it came out really pretty, Thanks for the tutorial! Also, since I am just starting out learning how to do Dot Mandalas, I thought I would mention for my fellow newbies, who, like myself, still need guide lines; that since the CD is clear, you can draw guide lines on a piece of paper and stick it to the back of the CD with couple small pieces of double sided tape. It really helped me keep everything straight.

Great! Another idea. My husband is already telling people, “Don’t stand still or she will paint dots all over you.” Lol. So addicted. And, I did buy your wooden tool set and I love working with the wood much more than the acrylic tools. I would recommend others to get a set if they don’t already have. I am finding an album of my friends and family members favorite artist/s and making clocks with dot colors to match the label for Xmas gifts. Already getting the clock fixtures at Michal’s with 40 to 50 % off coupons. Thanks for sharing all of your tips.

Wow! Great idea to do the dots on a clear CD, I didn't think of that, it looks amazing especially with the metallic paint. I did one last year on a black background and am going to try on the reflective CD, as I think that would have a nice effect too. Thank you so much for the knot, as I lost all my beads due to the knot slipping, fortunately, they were only plastic beads so no great loss, I am definitely going to use that knot. Well done and thanks for sharing and yes I would love to see what else you come up with, when dotting CD's.

Absolutely GORGEOUS!! What a terrific way to upcycle old CD’s!!! I now use a DVD burner in my computer and have a big ol’ stack of cd’s that have just been sitting in my desk, with the cover on, gathering dust, lol. Definitely going to try this!!! I’m going to be doing a paint party with a couple girlfriends for an end of summer playtime get-together soon, so I’ll do up a few before and show them how to do it as well ❤️ (All credit going to my favourite dot mandala artist of course 😉😘). Love that you did the fishing knot, lol, I also grew up fishing here in Alberta so it’s one I’m quite familiar with...best knot for this, hands down! (I’m like you in the other way...I don’t like to eat fish, and catch & release just seems kind of cruel to me, so I no longer fish. These days I go and just sketch by the pond as our dogs play in the water instead 😉). Thanks so much for doing your videos!!! Your tutorials inspired me to get back into dot painting after too long away from it and I am LOVING this art form all over again ❤️

So to do this with a DVD maybe try separating the layers first (video I'm referring to is called "DIY Room Decor / CD wall art ideas / Easy recycled project" and in it, they boil the DVDs in water to help separate the layers)

If you are concerned about cracking the CD when drilling, put a bit of masking tape where you want to drill and drill on the surface of a scrap piece of wood. The wood will support the CD so that it doesn't flex and the tape peels off easily when you are done.
