~Finally, apply glue stic glue on magnet & back of image as well. Smooth out any wrinkles or imperfections that may have persist while applying image on magnet.
CREATOR'S NOTE:
*There will be some extra trim of magnet around the image, back track a bit to trim the border so the image fits right on top of the magnet piece (basically over-lapping over the magnet)

Step 3: Coating Our Personal Magnets
~Apply a glob 'o clear nail polish on image and along edges, but MAKE HASTE because polish will dry & get sticky quickly.
~Once you are complete with coating your personal magnets, set aside in dry cool isolated area for an hour or so.
~Cherish your Personal Magnet and share the love with someone you love.
CREATOR'S NOTE:
* Be sure the nail polish is semi liquidy, if nail polish is too gooey and stiff then the coating process will not be complete. Instead, the outcome being streaky & uneven.
