Well, I busted out the duct tape idea again for another project.This time, I wrapped duct tape around a magnet/dry erase board. My sister just recently bought a house and I wanted to make something cool for my nephew’s new room. He’s 6 so I thought a Magnetic Message Board would be totally cool for a 1st grader’s bedroom.
Magnetic Message Board
I wrapped the 14 x 14 board with duct tape and used Cricut Graphically Speaking and Batman cartridges to cut out the black and red vinyl lettering.
Using duct tape was a super easy way to enhance the edges of the board.
What’s a magnetic board with out magnets?
How to make DIY Magnets
- Adhere paper on to the back of glass beads with Mod Podge, let dry.
- Use E6000 adhesive to adhere strong magnets on to the back of the beads.
DIY Magnets
Such a simple idea which has now inspired many more magnet ideas! Now I have to make some boards for my kids…they loved this idea!
