Easy DIY Pumpkin Magnets

One of the things I really love about Fall, is that even after Halloween is over, we can still celebrate with pumpkins, corn husks, and hay bales. Thanksgiving is certainly a great excuse!
I never really thought about Holiday decor on my refrigerator, but after I saw these cute little wooden pumpkins on sale at Hobby Lobby, I knew I needed to turn them into magnets…stat. They just looked so pretty, and anything is better than flat sales pitch magnets that don’t stick.
If you only have 5 minutes to spare, and $5.00 to spend, this project is for you…I mean, who can say no to that?
Supplies Needed:
- Flat decorative pieces or buttons
- Heavy duty magnets
- Glue gun
The Project:
Step 1: Squeeze glue gun until a small dollop of glue appears on the back of each pumpkin.
Step 2: Attach magnet.
That’s it!
See how easy this is? You can quickly whip out a whole bunch to give as Christmas gifts or stocking stuffers in one afternoon.
Change up the project by visiting your local craft store, browse the button or scrapbooking section, and you have a million little magnet possibilities. Or, you could shop your own button collection for an eclectic assortment.
Here are some more ideas:
- Use mini coffee cups as a teacher’s gift, or for a friend who love coffee
- Put together a rainbow button color palette for kids to pay with on your fridge
- Find some Fall or Christmas minis to change your kitchen decor with the seasons
Total Cost: $4.48
Mini Pumpkins $1.99 | Magnets $2.49
I might just have to make a few more of these pumpkin magnets…they are just way too cute, too thrifty, and the perfect little gift for a friend or co-worker. Wrap in a pretty package with a bow, and you’re all set for this year’s Christmas party!
