I love
washi tape. It's so cute and inexpensive that its so hard not to keep buying rolls and rolls. Finding cute magnets is also difficult. I usually like to keep my fridge clean with minimal things on it, but since I had kids, their artwork is all over the fridge. To help keep it cut I made these up cycled washi tape magnets using old magnet mailers. Speaking of keeping your fridge clean, the I found the best stainless steel cleaner. My mother in law gave me a box of these
stainless steel wipes (possibly as a hint that my fridge was filled with fingerprints) that work so well. I've tried to get the fingerprints and scratch marks off my refrigerator for a while. After using these wipes the fingerprints are gone and the scratches are much less noticeable. Sorry to get off on a tangent, here's the tut:
 |
| Tape over old magnetic mailer. |
 |
| Washi tape thin to I went back and peeled off the writing off the magnet. |
 |
| Cover the entire magnet. |
 |
| Cut the strips using craft knife and ruler. |
 |
| Zig zag the edges with a scissor. The more random the cuts the better. |
 |
| My fridge is so cute now. I should really bring these to my work to stick on my cubicle file cabinets. |
If you have lots of magnets you could also make a
magnet photo collage or
magnetic paper dolls.
