Get Organized with a Pizza Pan Magnet Board

The New Year and Back to School time are always great times of the year to get organized.  My kids go back to school in two weeks (HALLELUJAH), so we’ve been cleaning out closets, going through piles of paperwork, and getting some organizational systems in place to help make things run smoothly this school year!  One thing that helps keep us organized is having lots of places to keep our important papers front and center, like cork boards and magnet boards.  Because of that, I decided to make an adorable and functional pizza pan magnet board for my daughter’s bedroom!

It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

This is a great project because it is really fast to make and the supplies used are inexpensive!

How to Make a Pizza Pan Magnet Board

To begin, flip the pizza pan so it’s upside down and paint around the outer edge.  This will ensure that if your scrapbook paper circle isn’t perfectly shaped (mine definitely was not!), it will still look nice and not as much like a pizza pan!  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

Once the paint has dried, trace the pizza pan onto the scrapbook paper.  Then cut about 1/4″ smaller than the circle you traced.  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

Next, spray the pizza pan and the scrapbook paper with spray adhesive, and carefully place the scrapbook paper onto the pizza pan.  It will be hard, if not impossible, to move the paper once it’s made contact with the pizza pan, so be very careful!  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

If there is a significant amount of scrapbook paper sticking over one side or the other, you can carefully trim the excess with the scissors.  Next, cut a piece of rope long enough to wrap around the pizza pan.  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

Glue the rope around the edge of the pizza pan and weigh it down with heavy objects, if necessary, to get it to lie in place and form a strong bond with the pizza pan.  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

When everything has dried, flip the pizza pan over and press two 3M Command hooks to the back of the pizza pan, upside down. It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

Run a ribbon through the hooks and tie a bow at the top, and then you’re ready to hang your pizza pan magnet board!  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

It is just that easy to upgrade a pizza pan to a stylish and functional magnet board!  It's so easy and fun to make a pizza pan magnet board! This inexpensive project will help you get organized in a stylish way.

Two important things on this to-do list: (1) call mom; (2) buy wine.  (That’s my to-do list; not my daughter’s.)

And I just have to show you these adorable magnets my daughter picked out for her magnet board – they’re animals and pretty glass gems!

I might have to borrow those animal heads for my own workspace!  ðŸ™‚
