DIY :: Scrabble Magnet Set


You can make magnets out of just about anything of course, but I specifically chose scrabble tiles for this project. {which I found on Etsy)

There's not much instruction needed though. Just estimate how much magnet strip you'll need (according to how many magnets you're making) & then cut into smaller pieces to fit on the back of each tile. Use either super glue or hot glue (**even if the magnet strip comes with adhesive**) to attach magnet piece to tile back. Press firmly together & then {preferably}lay something heavy on the tiles overnight to help a strong glue bond form.

The last step: Personalize a small box or tin (in any way you wish) to hold the magnets. ( tip: If painting a tin, use wrought iron spray paint.)
Happy Creating!
