Fun creative craft which doesn't take much time

Material

quantity glass pebbles
1 roll or sheet of self-adhesive magnet
1 circle hole punch, the size of the base of the pebbles
assortment plain and/or patterned paper
assortment nail polishes and/or craft paint
assortment permanent markers
glue suitable for adhering paper to glass

Method

To make each magnet, decorate the underside of a glass pebble. Some suggestions for decorating are:
- punch a circle of pretty paper and glue to the bottom of the pebble (2nd pebble from the right)
- using nail polish (3rd from left), paint (3rd from right) or markers (2nd from left), draw a design on either the base or top of the pebble. Glue a punched circle of white paper to the base.
- draw a design on a punched circle of paper and glue to the bottom of the pebble
Once the pebble is decorated, cut a piece of self-adhesive magnet to fit and stick it to the base.

Notes

My daughter chose this activity to do at her birthday party and it was a hit.
