You will need:
- Mod Podge (and a brush to apply it)
- 1 inch glass marbles (got mine at JoAnn's)
- 3/4 inch button magnets (Michael's)
- Hot glue gun
- Scissors
- Magazine to cut images out of (I used Real Simple's December edition)
The first step is to use the glass marbles as a guide to measure images that you want to use. Then, trace around the image and cut it out. Put a thin layer of Mod Podge on the back of the marble (flat side), and adhere the image to the magnet.
Set it aside to dry, and finish cutting out images. Then, once the Mod Podge is dry- you can put a dot of hot glue on the back of the image that you just glued to the marble and stick the magnet on.
How easy is that?! I love how they came out.
Then, I packaged each set of 4 in tiny take-out containers that I found at JoAnn's. It took me about an hour to complete all 11 sets! Not bad, and it only cost me about $15.
What did you get for your coworkers or neighbors this year?
