From Pizza Pan to Magnet Baord

Happy Wednesday All!!!
I am so sorry I am late today. I was on a field trip this morning with my little preschooler and didn't get time to get the post up!

************************
Today I wanted to show you how to make a Super SIMPLE, but CUTE Magnetic Board. 

Aren't these boards so cute?!?

I had this idea in my head of doing a cute magnet board for my kitchen. I wanted to use a small cookie sheet to make it out of. So I went to the dollar store to see what I could find. I didn't really like the cookie sheets they had, but then my eye caught a metal pizza pan. 

I just knew that this was it!! I got 2 of them so I could have one on hand for may be a gift for someone or something, but as I was making mine my little girl just wanted one for her room. So we ended up making 2 of them!!! 

They were SO SIMPLE to make!!!


For the first one- I picked the paper that I wanted to use and cut a circle out on my cricut the size of the pan. It was just shy of 12". 
Then I mod podged it on the pan. 

Next, I got some black ribbon and hot glued it to the back of the pan so I can hang it up. I LOADED the glue on there so it would hold. So far so good!! I made a bow out of some red tulle and hot glued it on the board.
Isn't it so cute!!

Lastly I made some magnets to put on it. I went looking around my craft room to see what I could use to make some. I finally found some black bottle caps that I had bought a few months ago at the craft store and have been waiting to use them on some project. This was the perfect time to use them! All I did was put magnet strips on the back and I was done with those. 
I also found some little clothes pins that my hubby gave me for Christmas this last year. I wanted to bring in some more red so I cut out some red paper the size of the clothes pin and mod podged it on. Then I put a magnet strip on the back. 


Here is what it looks like all put together:
I just love having it up in my kitchen! It is so bright and cheery and perfect for holding papers and reminders!

Now...for the second one I made for miss Kaitlyn. I wanted to have a little more fun with hers so first I spray painted it pink!!!
I took awhile for it to fully dry. 
Once it did we did the same steps as above. (If you want to see pictures or directions again just look above.) 

Here are the magnets we made for her board:
I did the same thing on the brown polka dot bottle caps as above and then on the white bottle caps we just cut out circles of paper that match the paper on her board and mod podged them on there to give them more color!

Here is what her board looks like all done:
We embellished it with the little flowers, which I had on hand. I hot glued them to the board. Little miss Kaitlyn LOVES to put her artwork up on her board!!
