Art and Crafts with Frances: Scrabble Magnets!

This originally read 'I love kittens' and 'feed frances'
Karl won't play scrabble with me any more because I cane his ass every time, so I decided to up-cycle* our scrabble set and make this sweet ass magnets. Functionally, they're a step up from those lame little white word sets everyone has on their fridge; and also really cool looking.

Here's how to make them:

You need: scissors, magnetic tape(get it from Bunnings) and a set of wooden scrabble tiles. You can use the plastic ones too, but they tend to be recessed in the back so you'll have to double up the tape- plus, they're not as classy looking.

Cut the magnetic tape into little squares slightly smaller than the tiles. Peel off the backing, stick to tiles. Press hard till its totally set. Stick on fridge, spell things!

*God I hate that word. Just typing it makes me feel like a dirty hippy.
