Step by Step

1º.- For this project we have used plywood. Most crafters usually have some of this in their crafting ‘pantry’ as it’s such a versatile material. We used a jigsaw to cut it to the shape we desired

2º.- Like almost all our spray paints, our magnetic spray dries very fast. You’ll notice the magnetic effect will increase with each additional layer of paint. We applied 3 coats,  allowing five minutes to dry between coats. So the total painting time was just 15 minutes!

3º.- Now get to create the rope hanger. We cut three strips and have knotted at one end:

5º.- …and tied in a knot at the other end to create our hanger

6º.- The next step is to attach our rope on wood:

7º.- To do this , we used a staple gun, but you can also do it with glue.
