Sometimes you need a simple, quick and easy craft. Something that takes 5-10 minutes to complete.
So you can get in. Get out. And get on with your life.
Enter my DIY seed packet refrigerator magnets.
I dare you to find something easier than this!
5 Minute Craft - DIY Seed Packet Refrigerator Magnets
Step 1 - Find some pretty seed packets at the local store.
Step 2 - Cut off a piece of self-stick magnetic tape and stick to the back of the seed packet.
It's the same magnetic tape I used in my Wall Pocket Organizer project last summer (a roll of that stuff goes a LONG way).
Step 3 - Slap it up on the refrigerator.
Sure, you could take the seeds out and actually plant them if you wanted to.
But then all of a sudden you're traipsing out to the shed to find peat pots and that bag of potting soil you tucked away last summer and get sucked into straightening up the mess the mice have made in the shed. Then you totally blow past the 5-10 minute crafting time frame.
So what's your time limit for crafting projects? Do you prefer being able to complete them in one sitting? Or do you prefer longer more in-depth projects that take years weeks to complete?

Your magnets are charming, Pam! The NOEL magnet made me laugh...I should check around here to see if I have any Christmas leftovers I have missed...

You are so clever Pam! I love these. Funny but I've never thought of making my own magnets for the fridge. Gosh knows I need all the help I can get remembering things hahaha
I hope you had a lovely Easter.

I love this idea Simple yes but so pretty. Great idea for using the great art that comes with some of the seed packets!

That's a really cute project! Personally, I don't do a lot of crafts, because the tears and swearing were a bit much, but this actually looks like something even I could do 😉
