To make these, you need:
Indu: The way to do it is like this - cut out the photo to the size you want. Use craft glue to attach the picture to a piece of heavy cardboard. Chandu: Yeah, then cut the cardboard to the same size and shape as the picture. Glue a magnet to the back of the picture. Don't touch! Let the glue dry completely. Indu: If you want to try another method, use peel-and-stick type magnets. Stick the picture to the magnet and then cut the shape out with scissors. Chandu: You can use any picture, not just photos. Indu here is crazy about cutting pictures from magazines or old calendars, and making them into magnets. Indu: Ha, so what? They make nice collage magnets. I also like to have inspirational quotes on my magnets. Chandu: Yeah, Ms. Goody-two-shoes! Indu: While cutting the photo, use a sharp scissor. Only then will you get good edges. You can also make fancy edges with shape-cutting craft scissors! Chandu: See how easy it is! You can now create magnets for yourself or as gifts for your friends. Image courtesy: Woodward-family.com |
