Phat dominoes

I spent a rainy afternoon this week, sitting on the couch creating dozens of domino magnets from vintage children's book illustrations.

It is very easy to do and you can use pretty much any kind of image, but I chose the sweetest ones I could find from well-worn books.

Place the domino on top of the image you want to use and either draw a line then cut it out or cut right around the domino.

Paste the image down with watered-down Elmer's or Mod Podge. Protect the surface with a few more layers of glue, allowing them to dry between the layers.

Glue a button magnet to the back and you are ready to hold artwork on your fridge in a sweet and retro way.
