NOTE-WORTHY CLIPPIES

so...are you anything like me and need to have notes everywhere?...i mean...like notes for you notes?...yeah...it's that bad...well...then this is the project for you!...

these little guys are perfect...because...not only are they clippies...but they're magnetic too!...so...just slap these on the fridge and you'll never be noteless again!...




these are easy peasy to do!...just grab some clothespins...not even sure why i have any...it's not like i hang my clothes out to dry...some of those super strong teeny tiny magnets...i got mine at michaels'...super glue...and some washi or decorative paper tape...you know...that stuff that's basically purty masking tape...

just cover the clothespin front with the tape...trim off the excess...and plop a magnet on the back with some super glue...and that's it!...can't get much easier than that!...

you could also just have these hanging on the fridge to close chip bags or other snackies when needed...but if it's anything like in my house...the chips don't last long enough to be clipped!...lol...

****check out my linky party directory on the sidebar to see where i'm linking to this week!...

    Thank for the how to cover the clothes pins. I wondered about that. You sent me 3 and I passed one on to a board friend. Thanks again

    What a great idea! I am with you on the fact I wouldn't need to re-seal the chip bag though. They made then non-re-sealing for a reason right ;)
