Alphabet Magnets {Tutorial}

Lately, LJ has become OBSESSED with letters. He has this amazing picture from my friend Rachel who works at Wheel Of Fortune hanging above his changing table.

He would much rather look at it and point out the letters than get his nasties fixed :(

And everywhere we go, he particularly likes to point out O’s… like this.

We’re working on it…. :P

Anyways, I thought it would be a great idea to get him some of those little letter magnets for the fridge. Except, I can’t find them ANYWHERE! That’s what I get for thinking apparently.

So what’s a momma to do….craft!

Materials

Blank Magnet Sheet
Acrylic Paint
Painters Tape
Paintbrush
EITHER Die Cutter or Pencil, Letters to Trace, and Exacto Knife

I did stripes, so I started by taping off my magnet sheet.

Then painted on my red stripes.

I cut out my letters using my Cricut. You could also draw/trace letters onto the backside and use an exacto knife. This stuff is not hard to cut at all!

Stick them in their place of glory!
You can paint either before or after cutting, so I’m thinking of making LJ some shapes and stuff. I KNOW he would LOVE an Elmo :)
