Craft: Button magnets

 

Roberta here with a super-easy, super-cute craft: button magnets! My mom sews, so we always have LOTS of buttons around. She lets me do whatever I want with them, so I decided to make some really cute magnets. Here’s how I did it!

 

What you need:

Buttons, strong craft glue OR cool-temperature hot glue gun, round magnets

 

What you do:

1.       Put a blob of glue on the back of your button.

2.       Put the magnet onto the button.

3.       When the glue is dry, put your button magnet on the fridge.

4.       Super easy and super cute!

    I like the craft suggestions from Roberta. I am a grandma, and first started on Webkinz to check it out for my two grandaughters before I let them play. We are all still here, and enjoy different types of pets, different games and prizes and quests! We have done lots of the crafts together and had a lot of fun doing them :)

    I might do this with some really fancy and pretty buttons I have saved. I’ve been looking for a way to use and/or display them. Thanks, Roberta.

    hi! i’ve never tried making my own magnets before but now that i know how easy it is, i think i’ll try this! i’ll also tell all my friends about this. we can all make button magnets together! maybe my art teacher will also approve…i can already imagine my whole class making button magnets! i’d make lots of polka dot ones, and ones with stripes too. i can even make animal printed button magnets! and ones that say IMPORTANT or LOOK AT THIS! to post important notices on the fridge or something. this’ll be fun! –>random<–
