Magnet photo frame for framelit and edgelit storage

I’m sure I’ve done more posts today than I have done in many months!

I wanted to share this project.  It is so simple but you would be so shocked at how long it took me to come up with!  I knew I wanted an easy way to store my framelits for the Big Shot but I couldn’t seem to get the idea that the surface had to be the magnet, not magnetic.

Here it is:

 This is just a simple photo frame that I have painted and sanded to give that shabby chic feel. The magnet sheet is from IKEA, you can buy it online from other places too. 

The fabric is from the “Comfort Cafe” series on page 171 of the main catalogue.  I have added some buttons from the Neutral Designer Buttons on page 176.  They have been adhered to the frame with hot glue.

I intend to place this frame near the Big Shot during classes so that the framelits can quickly and easily be placed in easy reach between uses.  These framelits are so small and light it is unfortunately really easy to throw them out, so I’m hoping this is a way to keep them safe.

Happy Stampin’
