Marble Magnets

Marble magnets are all the rage right now. ALL THE RAGE. there are good instructions all over the web on how to make the marvelous and magnety marble mags, like here.

But I kinda wanted to show off some of my own magnets. The ones above are retro lady images on a shiny oragami background. i took the retro ladies from old patterns, making color copies so i can use the same girls over and over.

The stars ones are also out of shiny oragami paper, and the little space people are pictures I drew and glued to the back of regular oragami paper. Too easy and too fun. For Christmas presents I painted and decopauged Altoid tins and packaged the magnets inside. Too cute.

There's been a lot of discussion on the proper glue to use for marble magnets. I've been very happy (he he, especially when the fumes get to me) with Amazing Goop. Despite the retarded name, it's a great product for all your household gluing needs. i always have a tube on hand.
