another little thing I was working on this week-<\/p>\n

Here’s the problem. I am going to participate in an open studio event in Boston with a group of other Etsy<\/a> sellers- details on that in a week or so, but in case you want know, it is May 4. I needed to figure out some kind of give-away to add to a promo pack… stuff from all of the exhibitors. Some of the others in the group were already doing this and had buttons made up. Hmm. I knew I didn’t want to spend much money, I wanted a clear image of my work and I didn’t want it to involve a lot of labor. Here is what I came up with-<\/p>\n

ta da! Refrigerator magnets!

They are made from photos of Mosaics<\/a> on Flickr<\/a>. First, I made up a variety of mosaics<\/a>. I picked out photos that worked well in the square format and in a 2″ x 2″ photo. I made the mosaics 2 photos by 3 photos since that translates perfectly to a 4 x 6 photo. The most important thing is to upload your images in the large size- spoken from experience. My first batch of photos was too grainy to use. I printed out my info- name and etsy site address<\/a>– nothing fancy. Then it was just putting them together onto the self adhesive magnetic sheet. The paper doll project<\/a> brought this stuff into my life and I’m loving it! This project involved no special tools- the photos were printed at Target, I got the magnetic sheets at AC Moore, you can cut the magnetic sheeting with regular scissors, I printed out my info on regular paper with my very low end printer. Yes- meets all criteria!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
