DIY Flower Magnets

Created these flower magnets for our spring program.  They really brightened up the room and the kids love them!  They also act as a learning tool to teach about colors and textures.

Here's what you'll need to make them

The Magnet Source 1 in. x 5/32 in. Ceramic Disc Magnets (6-Pack) Model # 07004 Store SKU # 902181 Home Depot carries them for $2.59 / each

---

Scotch 1 in. x 1.66 yd. Exterior Mounting Tape Model # 411-DC Internet # 100575385 Store SKU # 490070 Home Depot sells it for $4.97 / each

Metal can from soup or vegetables 12-14 OZ.  Remove the lid with one of those openers that doesn't leave rough edges.  Use the lid as your base to hold magnets on one side and flower on other side.

Deconstruct the flower and glue each piece back together with hot glue gun.  Glue back section first to the lid and rebuild your flower piece by piece from there using the glue.  Adhere the magnets to the back using the mounting tape.  Cut the tape around the magnet to form the shape of magnet.
