DIY Refrigerator Magnets
Personalized Refrigerator Magnets
There are so many different types of personalized refrigerator magnets that you can make & use to decorate that boring blank space! Here are some of my favorite ways!
1. MiniVerse DIY Magnets
This DIY refrigerator magnet craft idea is perfect for an easy activity for a girls night in! The first step to a craft night is a cute setup!
What You Need:
The Crafting Setup:
These placemats are my favorite for craft nights because they’re so easy to clean! The resin from this project wiped right off.
These MiniVerse crafts are so much fun! I used the diner collection, but they have so many collections to to choose from!

2. Sticker Collages
Using Polaroid photo frames, I layered stickers together to make collages, and they turned out so cute! You don’t need to peel the stickers to keep them in place so you can easily swap them out and reuse the stickers in the future!
What You Need:
- Stickers or small pictures
- Magnet frames
- Tiny embellishments such as dried flowers
How to Make DIY Sticker Collage Magnets
Step One:
Detach the front and back plates.
Step Two:
Play around with stickers, images or tiny embellishments into a layered collage. You don’t have to stick them down permanently, you can just use the front plate to hold it in place!
Step Two:
Decorate your fridge!
3. DIY Bow Magnets
This magnet is so easy to make because you probably already have ribbon! These bow magnets are so easy and fun to make for your coquette fridge.
What You Need:
- Ribbon – 3/8 inch satin ribbon worked best for me
- Krazy glue
- Magnets
Step One:
Using 3/8 inch satin ribbon, tie one knot in the middle, and then form one loop on either side of the knot and knot the ribbon into a bow.
Step Two:
Use super glue to attach the bow to the little magnet.
Step Three:
Decorate your fridge! So easy and so cute!
4. Lego DIY Magnets
Similar to option 1, you can also make magnets out of Lego sets! The small sets can be so cute and fun, and there’s never a great place to put them after it’s completed. Attaching a magnet to the back of it makes it a perfect decoration for your fridge!
What You Need:
There are so many fun Lego sets and mini figures that you can make and use as cute fridge decor! One of the best parts about Lego bricks is that you can get creative and also build whatever you want. You can also use the “Brickit” app to scan a pile of Lego pieces and it’ll tell you what you can build – and how to do it!

5. Air Dry Clay Magnets
There are endless possibilities of what you can make with air dry clay for your fridge! Animals, hobby items, shapes, letters, etc. You can also find tons of tutorials on YouTube and TikTok for whatever you want to create.
6. Antique Frame Magnets
Little antique looking frames for the fridge is also so chic! If you’re crafty enough, this is something you can make with air dry clay and mod podge.
You can also make cute picture collages using mod podge from the craft store and adding little frames, or using air dry clay – like I previously mentioned! I definitely want to try out a new idea soon so stay tuned to see what else I make.
