Make cool magnets out of attorney/out of date calendar magnets

Hey there. You know those attorney at law magnets that you get when you get a new phone book? How about those magnetic calendars that you get from your insurance company? Well when the calendars go out of date they serve no purpose and why the heck would anyone would want to place a balding middle aged man on their fridge?

I created this instructable to show how you or your kids could turn those old magnets into something that you would actually like to be on your fridge. It could be a picture of someone special, your favorite pet, a favorite mascot/team, or a recipe you never seem to remember. The possibilities are literally endless.

Step 1 What your going to need

Alright since this is a rather simple instructable you will not need much.

Below is a list of the things you will need.

Magnetic calendars/attorney magnets
Old magazines/stickers/ or any picture that you want to turn into a magnet
Scissors
Exacto knife (depending on how difficult the picture is)
Super Glue or glue of your choice

I buy 60mil archival vinyl magnet sheets. 1/16" thick! I paint right on the adhesive surface. They can be tossed up on any ferromagnetic surface. Since 1996 I have created over 30,000 unique pieces! Using acrylic paints, gels, found object and pictures, I haven't found something I couldn't put on a magnet. I have now began to embed neodymium magnets in my wood canvas frames. Art is magnetic so make the magnet the art!
