There isn't actually going to be any music in today's post, but music is still the subject! I love making playlists and mixes and especially love making mixes to share with others. I thought I'd share a few suggestions for making mixes and a really simple diy for a cute envelope to hold a CD. All you need is some card stock or scrapbook paper, washi or deco tape, and maybe some stickers for decoration. When I make a mix, I usually like to decorate the CD itself with markers and include a handwritten track list on some fun stationary.

| Cute supplies are a must! |

| My paper choices. You need two pieces, each about 6x6 inches. |
 |
| Add washi tape to the sides and bottom, folding it over to connect the two pieces of paper. |
 |
| It's all ready for a CD and track list! |
Sometimes my mixes are really random, but a themed mix can be fun! I recently included a mix in my crafternoon white elephant gift that was all female bands and singers and I keep meaning to make a hip hop mix for a friend. Think of songs that sort of transition well into each other and if you're doing a completely random mix, vary upbeat songs with slower ones so there aren't too many of one type in a row. Clearly there's no right or wrong way to make a mix and I'm no expert, so just go with what sounds good!
