Magnets

Magnets were a Valentine project that goes on - we all had such a good time.

That is them displayed on a Moroccan screen for the fair. They are a lot of fun to make, a lot of fun to have and sold very well. I use then as cards sometimes for a birthday, or another occasion - it is nice one can put them on a fridge or a metal cabinet. There are all kinds of shapes: monkeys, birthday cakes, bunnies, stars, flowers, trees, cows, hearts...

First the shape gets painted on both sides, when all is dry whatever design will go on the front can be painted on. Then the glue gun and glitter come out. The magnet goes on last. It's really simple, but takes a few evenings to finish up with all the drying.
