Teacher appreciation magnets

I did a test run making these magnets for the end of the year teacher appreciation luncheon at Christina's school.  I found a bulk deal on thinner super strong magnets, but I still like the way these turned out.  If you haven't made them and want to know how, they are super easy and the sky is the limit for what you do for paper/expressions....

Supplies:

Jewel-It glue (found mine at Michael's)

Clear vase gem fillers found in the silk floral/floral arrangement supplies section at Michael's or Wal-Mart.  These are sort of flat on one side and rounded on the other

3/4" circle magnets (at Michael's or larger bulk on ebay)

3/4" hole punch (Michael's scrapbook section)

paper of choice

Directions:

Optional- *Print expressions on paper (*use a laser printer, otherwise ink will bleed!)

Using hole punch, punch paper holes and set aside.

Line up magnets & put a dot of glue on each.  Add the paper and press gently.  Add another drop of glue.  Add the gem, flat side down and press gently.  Let dry.

For the teacher luncheon we're just going to post them on a large magnet board, but for smaller gifts you can give them in small tins (Altoid-size).  I think they have those at Michael's too, but you can find them on-line as well.
