Steampunk Inspired Rusty Magnet Board + Magnets

This project and video tutorial are sponsored by Darice Crafts. All opinions and ideas are most definitely my own!

One of the new things I’ll be doing this year is serving as a Video Ambassador for Darice Crafts! (And yes, I’m totally over-the-moon happy about it!)

Darice products are sold in major craft stores and you can also find their products on ConsumerCrafts.com.

Since January is traditionally a time when we all want to get more organized, I’ve come up with a fun way to keep those stray pieces of paper – or your child’s best artwork – front and center, as well as attractively displayed:

Steampunk-Inspired Rusty Magnet Board + Magnets

You can see the entire “how-to” in the short video tutorial I made below.

Supplies used:

Now that you’ve watched the video, here are the links to the products I used:

Darice craft supplies to make a rusty magnet board

Rusty Tin Sheets – set of two 9 x 12 sheets

Brown Felt Pads – 20 pack

Adhesive-backed Magnets – 3/4 inch diameter; 18 pack

Steampunk jewelry findings to make Steampunk-inspired magnets

Steampunk Jewelry Findings – assorted styles

As I mentioned in the video, jewelry findings make great decorative magnets, and it’s so easy with the adhesive-backed magnets I used.

Additional supplies: brown permanent marker, twine, scissors, drill (for holes)

I hope you enjoyed this project and the video! I’ll be bringing you another Darice-sponsored video later this Spring!

Happy crafting!
