Starbucks Fridge (or cabinet, etc.) Magnets

Make some fridge magnets for your favorite coffee hound.

Step 1: What you will need

- A Starbucks Frappucino (the kind you purchase at the grocery store that comes in a bottle, not the kind you get at Starbucks that comes in a cup)
- a strong magnet* see below
- some sort of adhesive (I used double-sided foam tape)

Optional/Possible:
-packing/duct/masking tape (about 1.5 inches wide)

If you are using a harddrive magnet, you may need
- 2 crescent wrenches.

Magnet:
For the magnet, I used a standard harddrive magnet. If you don't know how to procure one, you can also just buy a magnet from some place like www.amazingmagnets.com.

I will include brief instructions for getting the magnet off of the metal plate onto which it is attached by default.

NOTE: You will want to make sure that the magnet you are going to use will sit inside the lid of the frappucino with a little clearance. This will make it possible to remove the magnet from the face of the fridge without too much effort (since these magnets are STRONG!)

Heh. Yeah. I think it's a mermaid, but not sure what that has to do with coffee. I wondered part way through about posting a seperate instructable on how to remove the magnet. Maybe I'll do that at a later date, for people to use as a reference.
