Looking for a fun and functional craft on the cheap? These magnets are a great way to combine your favorite paper scraps with dollar store glass gems, and they’re not hard to make at all! It’s been a long, long Michigan winter, and I am SO thinking spring over here! We may still have plenty of snow, but I brightened up my kitchen by using bright spring colors in this easy to make set.

I picked some of my favorite Core’dinations patterned papers (and I’m totally digging the polka dots right now), busted out the Mod Podge, and shared the full tutorial over at the Core’dinations blog this week. If you’re starting to change seasons in your decor too, these are great for the frig, for the classroom, or for the family whiteboard. They’re also great for holidays, birthdays, vacation mementos… so many possibilities for just pennies, once you have the basic supplies.

Stop on over to get the tutorial, and say hello! Are you thinking spring where you live, too? What colors are you loving this year? I’m really into aqua all of a sudden, but I’d love to hear what’s hot in your home!


Love your glass tiles. Do you have a tutorial?
