I bought a package of clothes pins at the dollar store (36 in a package). I painted them with a foam bush using the cheapest acrylic paint. They did dry very quickly because I didn't put the pain on thick - just almost a thin wash of it on the clothes pin. Once dry I took rubber stamps to stamp them with images. It didn't matter if the image fit or not...them running off the edge worked still. And then I attached a magnet to the back.
They would be cute too if you stamped names on them or to-do, urgent, read and so on them for an office or teacher. Michael's sells tiny alphabet stamps for $1 that work well on them.
I loved the clothes pin magnets you sent last year. We use them on the fridge to hold all sorts of things and they are used daily :)
ReplyDeleteI made some this year for my mother in law and mom!
This is such a great idea! I'm going to make some tomorrow because this is exactly what I need for my fridge.
