Magnetic Board

I wanted to make my aunt some cute magnets for work, but I didn't think she'd have anywhere to stick them, so I made her a little magnetic board for her desk! The best part is that it was from stuff I had laying around! I had this old frame that was missing the glass. It had the back, but I didn't have it in for the picture.
I have lots of 5x7 galvanized steel step flashing left over from Christmas presents I made, so I used one as a template to cut a piece of scrapbook paper that I liked.



I thought that I'd just put the paper in front of the steel so that I could easily change it for seasons or holidays, but the frame was kind of cheap and didn't really hold it tightly, so I put 3 pieces of double sided tape and attached the paper to the steel.




Here it is with just the plain magnets (before I got the cute ones made)

And again, the finished product! Easy and cute!
