DIY Disney Buttons Into Magnets

We got these awesome AP buttons back in September for the AP Days Event at Disneyland. I love these buttons because they're a lot smaller than the traditional Disneyland buttons (First Visit, Happy Birthday, Just Married, etc). Those are like 3" in diameter. The AP buttons are probably 1" to 1.5" in diameter. Definitely much cuter!

Anyhow, I like how tiny they are, but I still don't like the whole button aspect. I was searching online to see a cuter way to repurpose them and found that I can totally turn the into magnets!

It's pretty simple, you just need the buttons, magnets, some sharp shears, pliers, and a glue gun.

Just use the pliers to twist around the pin on the button and then use a pair of sharp scissors to cut off onesie. Then, use the pliers again to shimmy and pull out the pin completely.

Now all you need to do is glue the magnets onto the back of the buttons, TADA!

Check out how cute they are on our mini fridge.
