Music Magnets {with bottle caps}

These little magnets turned out way better than I expected and didn’t take long to put together at all. I love them….and you can personalize them as much as you want to make them that more special.

Trace the quarter with your writing utensil.

Cut out.

Apply mod podge inside bottle cap.

Insert cut-out. They liked to curl up so I used the quarter to press it down.

I liked the look, but wanted to make it a little more personalized.

I used Microsoft Word to create numbers and words. Then I printed it out on my music sheets.

To apply the magnet, just take the white side and peel it off.

Stick it on the back of the bottle cap. (FYI: They stick extremely well.)

And put ‘em on your fridge.

Notice the yellowing of my pictures? Ran out of daylight. That’s how different pictures look at night in unnatural light. Crazy!
