I’m so excited about this easy project that I just finished for Connor’s playroom.
I made a magnetic board to hang up his artwork and it turned out better than I thought it would. The best part is that it cost less than $20.
To make your own magnetic board, you will need the following materials:
- Old frame (I used an old 24 x 36 inch frame I had in the garage)
- 1 yard of fabric
- A sheet of metal (make sure the metal is magnetic). I found mine in the duct work aisle at my local Home Depot. It was the exact size that I needed but it could easily be cut to fit any frame.
- Duct tape
- Paint if you want to paint the frame.
So easy!! The hardest part was waiting for the paint to dry because I’m so impatient:)
Do you need a magnetic board in your playroom, kitchen, or office? If so, follow these simple directions to make your own. Leave a link below if you make your own magnetic board. I’d love to see it.
Great idea :). I’ll have to do this once we get settled in Hawaii!
I agree!! Great idea!! I need this for my son! I’m running out of room for his artwork. =) Thank you!
It turned out great!!

Great magnetic board Kara! And thanks for checking out Etcetorize~
Super cute! I’ve wanted to do some projects that require sheet metal, but how to you cut them to the size you want? Do you have to have tools, cause I don’t 🙁 {other than the basics like hammer, level, a drill…}
The sheet metal comes in all sizes at home depot. The one I got was the exact size I needed. It is thinner because it is in the duct work aisle. I saw other pieces of metal in a different aisle but it was thicker and more expensive. I heard that they will cut it for you if you ask them. Hopefully they will:)
