How to Make a Cute Lacy Refrigerator Magnet Gift
To delight your sweetheart for New Year's or Valentine's Day, you can make this cute, lacy heart refrigerator magnet "cinched in a corset." To make the magnet, you will need: thick and thin cardboard 15/15 cm;
Main Steps
Step 1
To delight your sweetheart for New Year's or Valentine's Day, you can make this cute, lacy heart refrigerator magnet "cinched in a corset."
Step 2
To make the magnet, you will need: • thick and thin cardboard 15/15 cm; • 2 pieces of cotton fabric 15/15 cm; • lace; • scrapbooking paper; • a magnet (new or from an old item); • waxed cord; • Moment glue and PVA glue; • a hole punch; • eyelets and an eyelet setter; • brushes, a pencil, and scissors.
Step 3
Cut out the blanks from cardboard using a template. Glue the fabric heart onto the cut-out cardboard heart, leaving 1–1.5 cm seam allowances.
Step 4
Step 5
Cut the seam allowances into small strips, fold them under, and glue them to the base. Repeat the same process with the corset pieces, but leave the edges untouched on one side—they will be attached directly onto the heart.

Step 9
Punch holes for the eyelets using the hole punch. If you don't have a dedicated eyelet setting tool, you can use an eyelet setter and a hammer. Glue a strip of lace to the wrong side of the corset so that it peeks out playfully on the right side, and lace up the corset.
