Introduction: Multi Functional Fridge Magnet

About: I am an artist living and teaching ART in NYC for over 30 years, and I am a CZT, Certified Zentangle Teacher. I love to explore all sorts of art making both in my teaching and in my own work...check out my sit…

What do you do with all those cool little cans that special candies and spices come in? If you ar like me you can't bear to part with them and you have plenty of traveling vitamin containers or button boxes. Make them into something useful for your home! A multi functional refrigerator magnet...holds your "stuff" inside and out!

Step 1: Supplies

You will need a hot glue gun, glue sticks, magnets and your empty tin of choice.

Step 2: Assemble

When the candies or spices are gone, remove the lid and glue the magnets to the back of the tin. The magnets will probably stick magnetically to the tin but I use a hot glue gun to reinforce them. Otherwise when you put things in the tin it can slide down the refrigerator door. That is also why I adhere a few magnets to the can, just to make it stronger so it can hold more weight.

Step 3: Stick It to Your Fridge and Fill It Up!
