Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas to our American Friends! We know that Christmas is a big holiday for you and that you tend to go above and beyond with your Christmas decorations! Did you know that magnets could help lift your decorating to the next level?! Here we have put together some of our popular magnetic hacks to inspire you this Christmas or even give you some ideas for days of celebrations!
Elf on the shelf
Santa is very busy this time of year and he needs his Elves to keep an eye on you to report who’s been naughty and nice… Cue the smiley Elf on the Shelf. As a parent, I bet you are constantly looking at ways to be creative with your Elf on the shelf. Do not panic, check out our creative magnetic solutions! To get started all you will need is our Adhesive 20mm (0.79″) diameter x 1.5mm (0.06″) N42 Neodymium Magnet 2kg Pull. Simply peel and stick the magnets to the Elf’s hands, leaving to cure for 24-32 hours. Then it’s time to get creative! Here is some inspiration for you…
Create the best Christmas scene on your garage
With a little imagination, a dash of creativity and a roll of black magnetic sheet and tape you can create some fabulous temporary Christmas silhouettes and transform an ordinary white garage door or refrigerator door! Please note your garage door must be made from a ferrous material that magnets attract to.
What you will need:
- Sharp scissors
- Large black flexible magnetic sheet or A4 black magnetic sheet.
- 19mm (0.75″) wide black magnetic gridding tape
Good to know!
The magnetic sheets and tape have a colored surface on one side and are magnetic on the other. What’s more, they are all thin and flexible enough to cut with a regular pair of household scissors, so no experience or hi-tech tools are required to produce your designs. Now it is time to get creative!
Card Displays
You may have already started to receive Christmas cards. If you have, you may be wondering how you can display the cards? We have a creative solution for you…
What you will need:
- Neodymium Disc Magnet
- Decorative String
- Scissors

- Your chosen Christmas figures… We chose Christmas gonks! For more creative fun, create your own gonks!
See how we made it!
Hanging Outdoor Lights
A bonus of winter is the dark nights, and with Christmas around the corner, it’s time to get those outdoor lights out! For this you can use either our carabiner magnetics or cable tie magnets, these can be attached to any ferrous surface on your homes, for example around your garage doors!
