Kids Magnet Board

What you'll need:
  • Metal tray
  • Spray paint primer
  • Spray paint color of your choice
  • Ribbon
  • Hot glue


It doesn't get much easier then this:
  • Prime the tray (let dry about 10 minutes)
  • Paint the tray (let dry in between coats - I used 3 layers)
  • Hot glue the ribbon hanger to the back of the painted tray
  • Add your magnets to your board 
  • Hang your board

Marble Magnets



What you'll need:
  • Flat marbles (I found the large flat marbles at the dollar store - the smaller flat marbles I found at Hobby Lobby)
  • Clear glue
  • Hole punches (it is best that the punch is slightly smaller then the marble as you won't want any over hang)
  • Magnets
  • Magazine pages/scrapbook paper



What to do:

  • Glue the front side of the image (or the flat side of the marble)
  • Attach the front side of the glued image to the flat side of the marble
  • Let dry 
  • Attach magnet to the back side of the marble


I cut these turtles out of a beauty magazine - they are from an eye shadow advertisement  







I found this metal gift card holder at the Dollar Store - an Altoids box would work too



I used a Starbucks gum tin to package my small magnets
