Magnet Board with Matching Magnets
Sarah Bringhurst of Mrs. D. Lightful shares this great photo tutorial for sprucing up your kitchen space. Create an embellished magnet board with matching magnets, made with the scrapbook paper of your choice. You'll have a great place to stick photos, recipes, grocery lists, messages and more. This is a great, last-minute Mother's Day project or anytime gift. You can easily replace the scrapbook paper if you get bored with the design. Use a magnetic spice canister like Sarah to store magnets not in use.
Materials:
- magnet board
- magnets
- flat marble wear (I'll explain later)
- scrap book paper
- mod podge
- hot glue gun
- scissors
- paint
- paintbrush
- ribbon
- flowers
...then you make it cute! (All I did was paint the frame, mod podged some scrapbook paper onto it...
...slap on some flowers...
...and a pretty bow. I used the hot glue for that and the flowers.)
Then you take the marble wear...
...mod podge some scrapbook paper to the back...
...hot glue a magnet to it...
...and there you go! Matching magnets!
This is a cute idea. These are actually spice containers found at Ikea, I think. They are magnetic!
So you just store the magnets you're not using in here!
Ta-da!!!! My kitchen just got a little cuter. :)

I have been wanting to make some thing like this for over my desk. Dont like the cork boards as much things fall and then you have to put holes in things you dont want holes in. Had it in mind but wasn't sure exactly how I wanted to do it so thanks so much for posting this great idea!!! This is exactly what I wanted to do!!

What a GREAT idea!! It's just elegant enough to be hung in any room...sewing roomcrafting roomhome office (mine is right in my dining room!)or an art studio..etc!! Anywhere you need to keep reminder notes..sewing pattern envelopes (for the pictures as guides or the notions needed) or paints,brushes, any other supplies the artist in you might need to keep track of not run out of!! Same goes for that home office too! Love it!! pps. So glad the pictures were posted..and so clear large too! Thanks again!!!

Hey, this idea is amazing! ... maybe you can add magnets to the flowers, too, for a dual purpose. I like this project.
