I think I mentioned working on half the kitchen table. Not much space, but enough to work on smaller projects like fridge magnets and rocks. Since I still had some wooden shapes, I’d gotten on Temu, I decided to go ahead and finish them all. I also found I still had some magnets, so I was able to finish them.

I used acrylic paint to do these, and a very very thin rigger brush to get the fine lines.

I love these little plant magnets, though I’m not thrilled with the mushroom ones…

I love the cats too and am thinking I need to do more of these. Maybe a little bigger. Maybe as coasters as well…

Remember these?

This is what they look like now. The evil eye, a very popular theme in Greece. Much better.

I had some more of these round flat pieces so I did some more simple colourful sea urchins.

Remember these?

Now they’re starfish. Or they could be urchins if that’s how you prefer to see them. But they’re not. They’re starfish.

I had a few more of these half rounds so I made more stylized urchins. I think I prefer these 3D ones, but both are nice.

Lastly, remember these fish – the top ones were made using the wood burning marker and the bottom ones were decoupaged.

This is what they look like now. Much more fun!

I’ve ordered more wooden shapes, some of the same and others in different sizes, not sure what I’ll make when I get them, but they’re fun to work with!

These little magnets are cute and make great little presents of the ‘stocking filler’ sort.
