mini magnets

I wanted to make a little take away gift for our recent family reunion and came up with these little magnets.

Here's what you need:
1" glass globs, mine came from Dollar Tree  there were 30 in the bag which makes this gift very inexpensive.
scrap book paper or any decorative paper
magnets, buy the heavy duty kind
glue I used Elmers
Encouraging words printed on the computer, printed then cut with decorative scissors, they could have been torn or cut also.
Position the words on your paper, with a tiny drop of glue.  Cover the back of the glass with glue and position over the words.  Let dry and cut away excess paper.  Brush on an other coat of glue to seal everything, let dry and add a magnet to the back.
This would make a great make-it take-it craft by using a 1" punch to cut the circles of paper.  Glue everything together, have a snack and then hot glue on the magnet.


A great big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my friends Jeanne and Mary.  We will be celebrating with lunch, shopping and a big fabric sale later this week.
