Christmas Card Magnets

"At Christmas all roads lead to home." -Marjorie Holmes

I always love getting Christmas cards, but never know what to do with them afterwards. It seems like sure a waste to get such beautiful images and just recycle them. I decided to make some magnets with decorative gems and the cards.


Materials:

  • Transparent decorative gems
  • Elmer's glue
  • Christmas cards
  • Scissors
  • Magnet pieces
Directions:
  1. Cut out the images to fit on the flat side of the decorative gems.
  2. Glue the images on the decorative gems. Let dry.
  3. Cut magnet to fit the gem and paste onto the back of the gem. 
Cute, simple, and easy to make.  This would be a perfect activity to do with kids.
