Makeup Board


I’ve had a lot of people asking me how I made my magnetic make up board, so here is a supply list and a step by step of what I did!

Supplies
  • A  backless picture frame 18 x 12 ( I got mine from Michaels on clearance )
  • A thin piece of steel 18 x 12 (I got mine from Lowes, they had it precut in the Mill Work dept)
  • Circular magnets (I also got those at Michaels)
  • Black spray paint (I used satin finish from Michaels)
  • Hot glue gun
  • Make up
  • Aluminum can or cup to hold brushes (anything will work)
Step by step
  • Step 1 – Spray paint the piece of steel (let dry)
  • Step 2 – I placed my piece of steel in the frame and used my hot glue gun to make a very thick coat all around the piece of steel to hold in into place against the frame
  • Step 3 – Hot glue magnets to the back of all your make up and any cups or trays you want to hold brushes
And thats it! 3 easy steps that in total, with dry time of the spray paint only took about an hour!
