Affordable DIY Magnets

A lot of the WBC Brides have asked for instructions to make these magnets, which I used for my Save the Dates. It was really very simple.


Supplies:
1) 8 1/2 x 11 magnet sheets - Purchased from Oriental Trading Company
2) Card Stock - Mine measured 5 x 7 to fit into the envelopes I purchased. I bought the card stock at Michael's
3) Photo Corners - Michael's
4) Ribbon - Silver and White - Michael's
5) Glossy finish printer photo paper - Wal-mart
6) Hole punch

I designed The magnet in Microsoft Publisher measuring 3 x 4 and printed them on the photo paper. I cut out the "picture" using my fiskars paper cutter and set them aside. Then I cut the magnet sheets (they are peel and stick) using a heavy duty paper cutter at staples to also measure 3 x 4. The I peeled the paper off the magnet to expose the sticky side, slapped the picture on there and voila! A save the date magnet! I affixed the magnet to to the card stock using the photo corners and used the hole punch to make holes for the ribbon.

I hope this helps you guys!

Title: True Levitation - No tricks - No illusions - Here's How

This is a mesmerizing demonstration of the diamegnetic effect discovered by Michael Faraday in 1845. It's small, but then again, so is the price. Invite your friends over, bet them you can make something levitate... And prove it.

To make one, you'll need 4 small RARE EARTH MAGNETS and a chip of PYROLITIC GRAPHITE. Graphite is a DIAMEGNETIC material which means, it repels magnetic forces. You repel magnetic forces too (or more accurately, the water in you does). If you had magnets powerful enough, you'd be able to levitate just like the graphite chip in the video.

The parts to make this are readily available on the internet and should cost between 5 and 10 dollars US.

My parts cost a little more, but they came pre-packaged and ready to use from American Science & Surplus. http://www.sciplus.com/ (93630 LEVITATION DEMO)

Setting the magnets up in a square like those in the video is tricky, but becomes a lot easier if you attach them to a small piece of ferrous metal (I used an old watch part). The magnets will naturally want to flip to the proper, opposite corner orientation - 2 facing north up - 2 facing south up. Once you have them arranged, carefully lower the graphite chip onto the center.

The graphite won't fall, but Instead, will float above the magnets... And will remain there forever if you let it... No batteries required:-)
