    Source of Recipe

    from a craft tips galore newsletter reader

    List of Ingredients

    Craft - Plastic Lids Magnet/Ornaments

    you will need:
    plastic frozen juice or other lids, washed and dried
    old pictures
    lamination
    glue
    magnet strips, this may be purchased on a roll at
    ...most stores that sell craft supplies
    or
    string or fishing line
    glitter glue, paint or bric-a-brac for decoration

    Trace a circle from one of the lid's onto sturdy paper.
    This is your template, (pattern).
    Shrink the picture, if needed, to size, by using a smaller
    size scale on your printer, or scanner, or whatever other
    means you have.
    When dry, laminate the picture, so it will last.
    Trace the template around the picture.
    Cut, and glue onto the lid.
    You may do this with another picture on the back
    or use a diferent pose or age picture of the same person
    /thing
    or
    any other picture you would like there
    or
    a piece of felt/poster paper with the name of the
    person on the front written and their age.
    Just do the same laminating so it will hold up.
    That is, if you are making an ornament, or if you
    just want to hang it on a window pane or
    wherever else you may want to hang it.

    If you are doing the double sided lids, do not
    forget to poke a hole through the top and thread
    string or fishing line through it.
    OR
    You may cut a piece of magnet strip to fit on the back.

    Glitter glue, paint, bric-a-brac or whatever on the border.
    Let dry.
    Magnets may be hung on refrigerator.
    Two sided pictures can be used for ornaments or just
    hang and enjoyed.
