New Reminder Clip magnets

Saturday, January 5, 2008

Back in December, I was thinking of ideas for homemade xmas gifts and I thought about using ordinary household, wooden clothes pins and dressing them up a bit. I used some acrylic paint I had to differentiate the days of the week, then used my alphabet stamp s with red ink, and added a really strong round magnet on the back.

At first, I was thinking of them being used just to clip paper together, so someone could have their papers organized on what "to do" each day of the week, but then I was thinking about the common metal bar (shelf) you usually in your cubicle and put sticky notes on, and thought.."hey!, magnets would be much better and make more sense!" They even work great on the refrigerator.

I have a few other ideas on how to branch off of this idea, so I'm going to work that up and see what happens. They turned out better than I expected, and both of my friends liked the nifty and handy gift. So much that I will add it to my Etsy shop soon.
