Make An Almost Free 3 Pocket CD/DVD Envelope

These are the steps to make an envelope to store your CD’s and DVD’s. It is easy to make and almost free.

Watch the video at the bottom of this post.

Materials needed; One sheet paper, tape, a scrap CD or DVD to use as a gauge. I have marked the back of the sheet to make it easier to see which is the front when you are folding it.

Step 1; Place the paper with the long side from right to left and place the gauge (CD/DVD) near the right side and a little below the top edge of the paper.

Step 2; Keeping the right edge of the paper flush, fold the lower portion of the page up to the point where the fold touches the gauge.

Step 3; While keeping the gauge from moving, fold the paper with the gauge on the outside and the fold near but not touching the gauge. Place the gauge on the top as shown below.

Step 4; Fold the excess paper on the right over the portion holding the gauge and crease it.

Step 5; Remove the gauge and use the edge of it to make a good crease on all edges of the envelope.
