Turn Old Stickers Into Cool Magnets
Posted on | August 26, 2011 | 2 Comments
A couple of years ago I bought several packages of handmade, multi-layer stickers for a dollar per sheet. Each sheet had about 8-10 stickers on it and was a fabulous bargain. Until now, I had no idea what to do with them.
Then, yesterday, someone placed the bizillionth advertising magnet on my door and suddenly inspiration struck!
The stickers are perfect for use as decorative magnets.
1. I wiped the top of each advertising magnet and allowed it to dry. I did this to insure the stickers would attach cleanly.
2. I placed the glue side of each sticker onto a magnet. On larger magnets, I was able to place two stickers. I patted the sticker down, gently.
3. Using a very sharp scissors, I trimmed the excess magnet from around the edges of each sticker.
That’s it! It was an extremely easy project and now I have fridge full of very cute magnets.
Warning – Most multi-layer stickers are fragile. These magnets are for decorative purposes only.

These are beautiful! I’ve done something similar but never thought to use stickers. I’ve been using spray adhesive with scrapbooking papers. I’ll have to try this.
