YOW! Advent Calendar

YOW! Advent Calendar – Door 14

Today we’re bringing a touch of Christmas cheer to the fridge!

With magnetic buttons that speak their own language:

  1. Create your own festive button designs on your computer. Use our templates to ensure you stick to the correct dimensions. Print the design using a laser printer.
  2. Cut out the printed design to the correct button size using a paper cutter.
  3. Place a blank button with the punched-out design and a suitable clear film into a button-making machine, then press the top and bottom halves of the button together.
  4. Stick the finished magnets to the fridge or magnetic board and look forward to Christmas!
Four round button designs on the screen: a red present, Christmas tree baubles, a golden tree with ‘Merry Christmas’ and a red bow
