Christmas Magnet Boards

I have a great group of friends. We've been friends since high school and still get together at least once a month for Gourmet Night. In December we combine Gourmet Night with a gift exchange. This year we decided that it would be fun to have everyone bring 8 of something. That way we all leave with 8 fabulous gifts! It was a BLAST!

I decided to make magnet boards for everyone. My handy father-in-law cut me 8x8 pieces of sheet metal and drilled holes in the top two corners. Then I covered them with festive papers and sundry bling. I made the magnets by gluing matching paper circles onto clear beads and adhering a magnet to the back. I decided to provide ribbon for hanging the board and a frame holder. That way they could choose to hang or not to hang {if they decided to hang it all they had to do was punch holes through the paper and tie the ribbon through}.
