Glass Marble Magnets

I hosted Mom's night this month and here are the glass marble magnets we made. This is such a fun and easy craft.
Directions for Glass Marble Magnets
You will need:
Flat glass marbles (found in the floral dept)
Small pictures, scrapbook paper, etc.
Mod Podge
Magnets or flat push pins
1. Find great pictures for your marble magnets: magazines, printed scrapbook paper, small photographs, using your computer, or your own tiny artwork. Look for small images that are about the size of the marbles.
2. Punch the pictures out with the hole punch or cut out with scissors.
3. Put a drop of Mod Podge over the picture and adhere to the flat-size of the marble. Squeeze to get rid of any bubbles. Let dry.4. I used 1/2 magnets with a sticker back. Adhere it to the back of the picture.
You could also adhere a flat push pin to the back of them and use them on bulletin boards, etc. They make great, personalized gifts, too. The magnets fit great in a small metal mints tin.
These little gems are super easy to make and we had a great time making them.
