Pearl jam sticker idea

VOLAREVOLARE Posts: 314
I thought I'd share an idea I had for stickers. Saw people talking about what to do with a sticker! I adhere them to recycled magnets, like promotional calendar magnets and such. Then I cut away the extra and create my own refrigerator magnet. Works great, been doing it for years. You can get magnet sheets at the arts and crafts store too.

Here's two I made this morning.

    I really like this idea. Not much of a sticker person but I've collected magnets since I was a kid and never thought of this. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Do you put anything on the sticker to protect it? I like the idea...

    I don't put anything on the sticker to protect it. I suppose you could, I never thought of it!

    I use scissors for the majority and then an exacto blade (razor blade) for the detail areas on a piece of wood so I don't fuck up my table. I noticed some stickers aren't thick so a recycled magnet with a busy design might show through the sticker if you look closely. Most recycled magnets you can peel off the top sheet.
