If you are stuck for a cute gift idea, this is definitely a go to
It’s cheap, easy and looks so pretty. I made mine with double sided tape and two weeks later it’s still on the fridge BUT if you want to make sure of durability I suggest replacing the double sided tape with modge podge.
What you need

– Glass stones from the garden or craft section of most stores – these are Mr Price Home
– Washi tape (this is a great way to use up those last pieces of tape)
– Double sided tape or modge podge
– Glue
– Magnets
– Exacto knife

Stick down a piece of washi tape onto your paper |

Cut the paper, and place double sided tape on the picture side You can skip the double sided tape and modge podge the picture onto the glass stone |

If you double sided taped it on now is the time to trim off excess If you modge podge you would want to trim before glueing |

Now just glue on a magnet… and leave to dry |

You should be left with pretty magnets like this… They are much prettier in real life, the flash from my camera just seems to refract badly |
What a cool idea!
