All you need are a bunch of old CD's, old scissors, a styrofoam ball, sturdy string, and glue guns.
First, cut up all your old CD's into little squares - about a half an inch to an inch. The CD's will be way easier to cut if you boil them for 30 seconds to a minute first, and cut them while they are hot. It will pretty much ruin scissors, so don't use your best pair.
Then you just glue the pieces on with glue guns, and glue a string under a piece at the top, and voila - you have a disco ball! Hang it, spin it, have a party!

I made a 12 inch ball for my teen room, and the kids made smaller ones. Styrofoam is surprisingly expensive!
