These are card holders perfect for those little hands that just can't hold too many cards (and you know my families current obsession with Uno!) They are also handy for those bridge loving oldies whose hands may be affected by arthritis.
Thought I'd share with a little tutorial.
First you'll need: needle and thread, 2 old cd's, wadding, 2 buttons, fabric (old t'shirts make great fabric!)
Place your wadding (cut to disc size) in the center of your fabric with your disc on top, then simple pull one of the threads to gather the fabric around the disc. Tie threads in knot and repeat on 2nd disc.
Places together with right sides out and stitch together using bottons through the center of the discs.
Finished! Now you can repeat as many times as you need depending on how many card players you have in your house!
Teamed with a pack of Uno, these make the perfect gift for boys or girls.

ReplyDeleteawesome!I am married to a computer disk monster and love to re-purpose those once expensive, now lousy paperweights. however now that the old people live so close to us we can play card. and hands get stiff and cramp from holding 20 plus cards. and this will work great !!!!!! i so look forward to seeing ma's face when i slap one in her hand.
ReplyDeleteQuel dommage que ça ne soit pas en français, et quand on clique sur traduire, ça ne fonctionne pas.
ReplyDeleteC’est facile... on peut regarder les images :-)
ReplyDeleteAre there 2 buttons on each side? If so how did you tie the knot when the back of the buttons are on the back inside the holder
ReplyDeleteGo to YouTube and search " playing card holder" the girls channel is Krista's ----- can't remember the rest but it is easy to find. She has 2 options for knotting the thread.
