Magnet

Laminated Photo Magnet

I like to use my laminator and I like photos. I have wanted to find creative ways to display favorite photos rather than displaying them in small frames. Here is my laminated photo magnet.
Supplies:
favorite photo
card stock
ribbon
hole puncher
*laminator
laminate sheets
circle magnet
tacky glue
  
Cut photo to desired size. Cut card stock 1/4 inch larger than photo. Center photo onto card stock and glue. Then laminate it. Trim photo around the edge of card stock. Punch holes around the edge of card stock. Cut ribbon twice as long as diameter of laminated photo. Start at the top center of the laminated photo and weave ribbon in and out of holes. Tie a knot at the end and trim. Put a dab of tacky glue on the back of the magnet and then stick to back of laminated photo. Let is dry completely before using.

Insecticide Spray

I am still making lotions and potions with all of the essential oils I bought. The insect repellent (blog post 7/1/13) worked for about fifteen minutes before the mosquitoes decided the spray tasted like a marinade and NOT a repellent! The deodorant (blog post 7/3/13) worked but I would not recommend traveling with it. It was a melted mess when I arrived at our destination. I will make more and use it only in my home. My next experiment is a homemade insecticide spray. I adapted this one so my husband can use it on his garden. Insecticide Spray   1/2 head of garlic (you do not need to peel them) 1/2 T of pepper flakes 1/2 cup water   Process in a blender until smooth then pout mixture through a sieve to remove chunks of garlic or pepper flakes. This is your "base."   Pour your base mixture into a spray bottle. Add 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of Jojoba oil. Screw on top and shake.
