Ice-cream stick airplane fridge magnet

We ate lots of ice-cream during the scorching HOT days recently and instead of disposing those popsicle sticks, we made airplane fridge magnet out of them.

We used a couple of long popsicle stick and one short one (cut from the long stick) and a wooden laundry peg.

Paint the peg with any color of your choice. We used acrylic paint.

Paint the popsicle sticks. Let dry. Glue them together. Glue a magnet at the bottom.

You and your son are so creative and innovative. Not just that, both of you are so environment friendly. Try to reuse instead just throwing away. In between, where can buy the black black sticky magnet?

  Diana Diane,
  
  Guess what? The magnet is from our old magnetic alphabets that has some words missing so we dug out all those magnet and paste them onto our plane!
  
  But if you like to purchase them, you can find some in Daiso :)

That is very creative. Wow, that’s a lot of ice cream sticks from the 8 plane. You certainly ate a lot of ice cream, don’t you?
