Attach A Dry Erase Board To A Refrigerator

A dry erase board has a china-like surface on which special markers can be used and easily erased. Used in businesses and schools, the convenience of a dry erase board has reached the household. The board can be used for lists, notes to the family or a fun place for kids to draw. A small dry erase board can be secured to the refrigerator. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions


1. Purchase craft magnets at an office supply store or craft store. Craft magnets come in rolls, dots (circles) or other shapes. The magnet has a sticky back with a peel-off covering that remains in place until you are ready to adhere the magnet to a surface.


2. Clean the back of the dry erase board and the refrigerator with an ammonia-based cleaner, like glass cleaner, to remove all residue. Magnets may adhere to the sides of a stainless steel refrigerator if the sides are simply painted to look like stainless steel. Otherwise, they won't stick.


3. Remove the backing from four magnets and secure the magnets to the back perimeter of the board at each corner.


4. Attach the dry erase board to the refrigerator to see if the amount of magnets used is sufficient to hold the board in place. Depending on the size of the board and the size of the magnets, additional magnets may be needed.
