{ DIY } Refrigerator Frames

My refrigerator was a veritable hodgepodge of notes, cards, photos, magnets and, yes, a magnetic dress-up Hello Kitty. I could do better. I found inspiration in the simple black-framed art around my apartment and took it to the kitchen. For a meager investment of $20 worth of frames, strong magnets and Krazy Glue, I transformed the refrigerator collage into something a little more refined. (Although, I still won't get rid of kitschy souvenir magnets.)

  3. We used to do this in college bc our fridge was overloaded with pictures/notes. We also took magnetic strips, painted them and cut them to form magnet-strip frames. fun and cute!

  6. Great idea! When we got our new fridge I said I wanted it to look clean so we didn't put anything on it and now it looks boring. Maybe I'll try this :)

  11. Jessica this is such a great idea. Your refrigerator literally looks like a mini-art gallery. I love that note from your parents...please resurrect Hello Kitty. A request from the peanut gallery :)

  13. What fun idea!
    Sadly, one of the "features" of our refrigerator is that the front isn't magnetic. Thanks LG.
