7 Days of Craft Fair - Day 3 - Custom Magnets

This week I'm featuring items that would make great craft fair ideas! This is the second year I've done this post - so be sure to check out last years posts to for more ideas to inspire you. Check back everyday for neat ideas and inspiration as you prepare for upcoming craft shows, or if you're planning fun gifts for Christmas!
Today we're featuring custom glass magnets.  I made these for my cabin friends out of Paper Loft paper. It's hard to get really cute woodsey paper, so when I find it - I usually snag 3-4 pieces.  Directions are below.

You'll need:

- glass pebbles (I got mine from Michaels, but you can also find these at the Dollar Tree)
- Mod podge or liquid glass
- foam brush
- small magnets
- craft knife
- Patterned paper or photos

Instructions:
1. Brush a thin layer of Mod Podge over the back side of the glass
2. Adhere the paper to the Mod Podge so it shows through the pebble
3. Let dry
4. Cut with craft knife

Easy Peasy!
