STICK IT TO 'EM

I made some (easy) magnets this week. I needed magnets in my classroom with a strong hold (coin magnets from Walmart work really well), and I found a way to use our extra wedding invitations!
I dipped each clear stone in Mod Podge.

Then, stuck them on pretty paper.

I had wondered what I could do with our extra wedding invitations. Magnets! 
It's a great way to keep them and see them everyday on our fridge!
After the Mod Podge dried, I cut around the stones and Mod Podged them onto the coin magnets.
These are some of the magnets I kept for at home.
(The ones on the right match my old kitchen. I made them a few years ago.)

I love how they turned out! It's something simple, but it really brightens up our fridge. I can't wait to use them in my classroom; both for the strong hold and the cuteness factor!

  1. That's a great idea! I've been trying to figure out what to do with all the extra stuff from our wedding. Also....I had the same invitations! Too funny! And nearly the same colors...we had the dark blue and a light pink! So I just had to comment on that!!

  3. I thought I followed you the last time I was here. I guess I was so excited by the magnets that I forgot. I officially follow you now! I would love for you to come and visit me. =)
