Dollar store quick craft: Magnet Board Tutorial

This is a great, EASY, quick craft that I threw together with items from the local Dollar Tree.

I found these great metal "art" sheets, and knew just what to do with them.


Out to the "spray paint place" it went.


I should have skipped this step all together, because look what happened...



These metal sheets are almost exactly the same size as a 12 X 12 sheet of scrapbook paper, and really didn't need to be painted.




Using my favorite crafting medium....



and adding a few embellishments.....




I ended up with this...




It's perfect for my daughters' room.



If you'd like a kit with detailed instructions, just let me know!

    Awesome, now I have to go to the dollar store and find some of these. Perfect for the kitchen and the kid's room. My daughter recently got a few sets of magnets and they are all over the house.

    I think you should have just gone with the tire track. It looked awesome. At first, I thought it was the desired effect. It would look cool in a boy's room. Use a chain for the hanger.
