Directions for Making a DIY Magnet Photo Puzzle for Refrigerator

1. Print out both your chosen photo onto magnet paper and the jigsaw puzzle template onto regular paper.

2. Trim off the edges of your photo.

3. Tape the jigsaw puzzle template onto the magnet photo sheet, adhering the tape to the back side (magnet side) of the photo.

4. Using an Exacto knife of scissors, cut our the puzzle pieces. I started with an Exacto knife, but I found the scissors much easier to work with in the end.
