The fun, repurposed industrial locker door memo board I hung in Luke’s room is sporting handmade, rustic wood burned wood slice magnets with outdoor symbols. Once Luke’s rustic room makeover {finally} happens, these magnets will fit well with the new theme and right now they just look really neat against the metal.
To make these simple wood burned magnets, I cut a large log into slices about half an inch thick. This log has been sitting in my garage for some time so the wood was already dry. If you’re using a piece of wood that isn’t fully dry, let the slices sit for a day or two to dry out.
When the wood slices are dry, use a wood burning tool {affiliate link} to add images. I wood burned symbols that might be found on outdoor signs since my little guy is an avid outdoorsman.
I’m not a great artist but since I was going for a rustic look, these images will work well. And my little guy thinks they’re perfect!
Once all the images are burned on …
… hot glue magnets onto the back …
… and stick them onto the magnetic locker door memo board or another magnetic surface.
Wood slice magnets are so simple to make and they look fantastic on any surface!
These are great! Very creative. 😉
