I wanted to try to make a jotter fridge magnet after finding a pack of ten 10cms x 7.5cm notebooks in Poundland. All I have done is cover over the front with some self adhesive blue and green DCWV papers to make the front a little more substantial adding a little decorative border to brighten it up. Then I thought why not add a calendar tab as well, never a bad thing to have on the fridge and low and behold it fit perfectly across the front.
I’ve added a neodymium magnet to the back, and boy does it have some pull, this is one fridge magnet that won’t get knocked off!

This is an idea I want to develop further, later on in the year when I will be looking for ideas for calendars to give as small “fairing” Christmas presents, especially as I think I may have done my coaster/beer mat calendars to death!
