Make your own marbled autumn magnets
Autumn gives us a unique display of colours every year - so why not capture this magical spectacle of nature with marbled magnets in the shape of leaves? The marbled effect creates colourful, one-of-a-kind pieces that will turn your magnetic fall decorations into something truly special.
Materials needed
- Scissors
- Pencil
- Bowl
- UHU adhesive
- Shaving foam
- Food colouring
- Wooden pick or ruler
- Disc magnets, e.g. type S-12-01-N
- Firm crafting cardboard or thick paper so the magnets are sturdy and durable
Preparing the marbling bath
To create the colourful marbled effect of your autumn decoration, start by spraying shaving foam into the bowl. Spread the foam generously and evenly. Now drip some of the food colouring onto the foam. There are no limits here. Whether it's a bright orange, a warm yellow or a deep red – anything goes, as long as it is fitting for autumn. Next, carefully mix the colours to achieve the marbled effect. Be careful not to stir too much so that you keep the effect. This technique is perfect for creating individual autumn decorations that not only look beautiful but are also practical.
Process for making the marbled magnets
Now, the creative part begins: Cut out small, autumnal shapes – such as leaves, acorns or pumpkins – from cardboard or thick paper. Once the shapes are ready, carefully push them into the coloured foam. Next, pull the shapes out horizontally and remove the excess foam with a smooth object such as a ruler.Let the pieces dry a little. As soon as they are dry, you can attach the small neodymium magnet with glue. Now you have your very own piece of autumn magic that will brighten your home and also hold notes and pictures on ferromagnetic surfaces!
Owl magnets made of felt as autumn decorations
In addition to colourful leaves, owls also fit in very well with the autumn theme. With these instructions, you can quickly create small owl magnets from felt to decorate your fridge or magnetic board. Let yourself be enchanted by the warm and soft texture of the felt and give your owls a particularly playful character with googly eyes. It is an easy way for you to make creative autumn decorations yourself.
Materials needed
- UHU adhesive
- Googly eyes
- Felt in various colours
- Disc magnets, e.g. type S-12-01-N
Making small felt owls
Autumn decorations in the shape of owls fit in everywhere. Cut the individual owl pieces out from the felt. Be creative and add your own personal touches to your owls: round eyes, a pointed beak and maybe some pretty wings.The next step is to assemble everything: Glue the individual pieces together one after the other. Use googly eyes to really bring the little owl magnets to life and give them character. Lastly, glue the disc magnet to the back of the owls and you have a magical, homemade autumn decoration for your magnetic board.
