Gather your Supplies. I bought Magnets and the glue from Amazon. The magnets come in as a pack of hundred. For photos I used the regular printer and printed out in grey scale collage.
First step is to print out photos . I used the online free tool, iPiccy.com to create a collage of 16 photo tiles and printed out in our home printer. Then cut them out in the size and shape of the cork tiles.
Paint the edges of the cork tile . You can leave it as it is too. Now using Mod Podge glue the photo prints on to the cork. Once the cork tiles are dry, give a thin coat of Mod Podge on the photos as sealer. Mod Podge dries clear and would leave a shine on the photos.
Using E6000 glue, glue on the magnets to the back of the cork tiles. Use one or two magnets based on the strength you want.
Let the magnets dry well before you start using it.
Enjoy you favorite pictures as magnets.
