Magnet fever!

I am addicted to making these. While my best friend Heather (Im a Pepper) was visiting me for a weekend recently, we made these in spare moments, and after a few days we'd made about a dozen each, using mostly pictures cut out of magazines.

    Beyond cute. Especially the one of the fam. I love crafty people...or people who try to be crafty. You're just too cool, B.

    Dread Pirate Betty - Thanks! They are super easy to make. I used not martha's tutorial, and found all my supplies at JoAnn's for under $10! They didn't have silicone sealer, so I used something that was billed as "glass and bead adhesive for slick surfaces" and it worked fine.

    katcat - Fun! Did you take pictures? :-)

    paperbluebird - Thanks! I recommend making some, they're quite fun. You could even do original art! It's amazing how good tiny pictures look when they're under a glass marble.

    Angella, this is only a sample of the ones I've made--the one that made me think of you isn't pictured here. (Ooh, mysterious, right? ;-))
