I'm a mother of young children, which for me means kids underfoot while I'm trying to get some semblance of dinner together every day. That's why I perked up at the idea of alphabet magnets to entertain the kiddos that don't strain your eyes or your design taste- especially this inexpensive DIY version.
I'm sure we've all walked past those brightly colored plastic alphabet magnets, and perhaps more than a few of us have been victims of putting them into our shopping baskets. I'm guilty of it, but they only lasted a few days because they were so... colorful. Not that color is bad, it just broke up my fridge too much for my taste.

Spray paint to the rescue again- this time with silver finish (although, you can do any finish you like!). I could probably handle this alphabet arrangement on my fridge!
