I transformed this free space between my kitchen cupboards into a decorative magnetic wall.
Below is everything you need to copy this project:
- Paint brushes in different sizes
- 1 litre magnetic paint
- Alpine wall colour White
- Annie Sloan chalk paint "Coco"
- Masking tape
- Paint roller
- Stencil foil
- 1 Pen knife
- 1 Stencil brush
To equip your magnetic wall with suitable magnets and magnetised photos, you'll also need the following:
Applying magnetic paint
Draw a square on the wall with pencil and frame it with masking tape.
Then apply 3 to 4 coats of magnetic paint within the frame (adhere to the instructions on the can).
Since I painted on ingrain wallpaper and was afraid the magnets wouldn't adhere well later (which was totally unfounded), I decided to use a paint roller.
Unfortunately I left some stains on the wallpaper where I didn't want them.
But I was able to remove them easily with a wet cotton cloth!
Thereafter, you can just paint over it with a regular wall paint.
You might need two coats to fully cover the grey magnetic paint.
Decorative frame around the magnetic paint
Remove the masking tape and trace the outline with a small brush and chalk paint to hide the jagged edges around the magnetic area.Besides the frame, I also wanted two birds to decorate the magnetic board.
I made the stencils myself.
The bird motifs can be downloaded from the PDF below.
Transfer the motif to the stencil foil and cut it out with a pencil knife.
Apply the bird motif to the wall with a stencil brush.
I used the stencils multiple times for more branches and flowers.
Then paint a second frame with a smaller brush.
And the painted-on magnetic board is done!
Magnetising photos
If you want to put photos on the magnetic wall, you can just attach self-adhesive magnetic sheet MS-A4-STIC to the backside. I did the same with a small notepad.
You'll be surprised how strongly the neodymium magnets
adhere to the magnetic wall.
The smaller cube magnets hold a sheet of paper with no problem, the larger magnets even hold heavier coupon books.
Now I can hang up and arrange shopping lists, receipts, coupons, etc.
nicely.
