DIY Glass Magnets

Sup fellow crafters...

Have you seen those really cool magnets that look like a bubble with a really cool picture abstracted in the back. I love them and was inspired to make some of my own. Its a cute gift idea too, thats what mine are for.

Supplies:

Craft Glue/Super Glue (clear drying)

Clear Accent Gems (mine have a kinda rainbow look to them)

Strong Magnets

Hot Glue Gun

Felt

Card stock (white)

Gloves (optional)

...looking back I would wear them next time especially 

working with super glue, cuz it was all over my hands 

and took me hours of scrubbing to get it all off :(

(1) Measure your stones to get an approx. size. (mine were 1.25") 

(2) Print out you images to that size on the card stock. 

(3) Cut them out. They don't have to be perfect but you just need to make sure that they do cover the whole back of your stone.

(4) Put a small circle of glue on the back. Make sure to do a drop. 

(5) Press down gently and turn over.

(6) Gently press down and make sure all of the bubbles disappear. Let dry. go around and cut the excess paper off the stone. Get as close of a cut as you can.

(7) Cut a small felt circle and hot glue it on the back side. Put a dollop on the felt and firmly press the magnet into the felt.

Ta-da

(not the best picture - late at night crafting again)

I love them...and such and awesome, cheap gift idea that is totally customizable!
