Fridge Poetry : {DIY Project}

It's our Thursday DIY contribution on theprettyblog and we have a super fun, cool and easy DIY project for you to download and put together. These little fridge pegs will help you to: remember the Birthdays that are coming up; keep an organized shopping list; clip together inspiration for your home or wedding; have important numbers handy and set reminders for your month ahead.

DIRECTIONS

  1. Please print page 2-3 of the downloaded document onto thick A4 card stock. {ivory paper is recommended}
  2. Trim each button by cutting along the outer edge.
  3. Paint a handful of wooden pegs in the colour of your choice. Or leave them in their natural raw wood colour.
  4. Attach a small magnet strip to the back of each peg with super glue. Or simply use a piece of prestik if your fridge is non-magnetic like this SMEG fridge.
  5. Attach a printed & trimmed  button to the top, bottom of each peg with double sided tape.
  6. Place on your fridge. Pin your inspiration, important telephone numbers, birthdays etc under each peg.
