What would you do with your old credit cards?

COMMENTS: 573312 Comments2009-10-07+15%3A49%3A23FB+%40+FabulouslyBroke.com

I never had any credit card debt, but I don’t think I’d want a reminder of all that debt.

Still, some of the ideas are cool, like as pieces of art, if you are proud of having gotten rid of all that debt.

What an interesting post from Pics Roll.

There are more pictures of what people have done with their credit cards (mostly jewelery).

Did you like the post? Then please share the love!

I cut mine up and distribute them among various trash cans so no one can put the pieces back together.

Okay… that dress is a little overboard. I like the little plant decor accouterments though.

Those pictures are so cool! Though I think the credit card dress is pushing it just a little…

Love the bracelet. This definitely gives me an idea about what I can do with my expired cards that are lying around, at least.

Okay, that credit card dress actually made me laugh out loud. That pic was a brilliant choice.

I hear that credit cards can be cut up into really good collar stays.

Okay… I’m not a fashion guru or anything… But that dress is REALLY ugly. I can understand it being a piece of fashion as a statement… but not to wear. But more for editorial photo reasons. ugh.

The rainbow art is pretty cool though I must say.

The stars are pretty cool, and the one charm-esque bracelet… I kinda like to use my credit cards, though, and that only works well if they’re in one piece.

I’d like to make the flowers, but I’d be paranoid about leaving my cards intact to do that.
