DIY Magnetic Pin Dish Tutorial - Supplies

INSTRUCTIONS:

STEP 1: GATHER SUPPLIES

DIY Magnetic Pin Dish - Ridge You want to find a dish, bowl or saucer with a ridge on the bottom. These can be purchased inexpensively at flea markets, yard sales and thrift stores or search your cupboards for a dish you don't use.

DIY Magnetic Pin Dish - Magnets To make magnet pin dishes you need to purchase super strong magnets. The magnets have to also be thin so it does not extend above the dish ridge. Neodymium Magnets are ideal for this purpose.

Garden Glass Flowers - Glue Another essential item is a good adhesive that dries clear. I like E-6000 Glue for this purpose.

STEP 2: PREPARING DISH

Make sure the dish is clean, so wash and dry it thoroughly.

STEP 3: ATTACH MAGNETS

Hold the magnet in the glue a few seconds to secure it and so it does not move. Two or three magnets should be sufficient for this project. Allow the glue to dry thoroughly for 24 hours.

DIY Magnetic Pin Dish - Completed The magnetic pin dish is complete! So easy! So useful! Make some and give as gifts!

This dish also works great in the bedroom, office and workshop to hold bobby pins, earrings, safety pins, paper clips, etc.
