Back-to-school craft: Make your own magnets
This time of year, moms are looking for every chance they can get to offer a few encouraging words.
Download and print these free back-to-school magnets to stick notes to fridges, lunch boxes, lockers, file cabinets and anywhere else they’ll get noticed.
Inspired? Create and share by tagging @HallmarkStores.
What you’ll need:
- Free printable magnets download
- Scissors or craft knife
- Inkjet printer
- Printable magnet sheets (for inkjet printer)
If you don’t have an inkjet printer, you can download, print and attach to self-adhesive magnet sheets. You can find these at office supply or craft stores, or online.
Once you’ve printed the magnets (or attached the print to the sheet of magnets), use scissors or a craft knife to cut them out.
Leave a white border around the illustration—you can make it as wide or narrow as you’d like.
We like using the back-to-school magnets to attach cute notes (use these) to lunch boxes or bento boxes.
And, of course, you can put notes—or greeting cards, artwork or particularly impressive test results—on the fridge.
Want bento box ideas to make them the coolest kid at the lunch table? Or breakfast ideas to start their day with a smile?
How about downloading a free first-day sign to personalize? Or filling your feed with the cutest back-to-school photos?
We’ve got all the adorable ideas you’re looking for! Find more cards and goodies to encourage kids here, plus encouraging message ideas to uplift them.
