Every time I see a kitchen makeover show I have to laugh. No matter what type of people or what class, they almost always have magnets on their fridge. Do you have decorative magnets on your fridge? What kinds?

Refridgerator Magnets - This is my kitchen with magnets holding recipe cards onto the fridge.
On the side of my fridge, I have some magnets that a girl I used to work with made. She cut them out of material and made magnets of cute little gingerbread and teddybear cutouts. I filled out recipe cards with our favorite recipes that I use regularly, and I have a magnet holding each card onto the side of the fridge so the recipes are easily accessible whenever I want to cook one of them. Here is a picture of my kitchen where you can see the fridge and the magnets and recipe cards on the side, and a few on the front along with other things such as measurement guides and helpful tips I like to keep handy.

LOL...that is so true. Of course I have magnets on my fridge. I have a 12 year old daughter so where else would I display her greatest art achievements? I have a bunch of magnets on mine actually. Along with a soccer schedule and some other things I don't want to forget. There are also some cute photos I keep forgetting to get frames for. I have a separate stand up freezer and it has magnets on it too. That one is adorned with my daughter's art including a fingerpainting she made years ago that I keep forgetting to get a frame for. Hmm..I'm starting to see a pattern here...lol.

yes I do - i have some that have useful phone numbers given by the doctor's or some companies. i also have some that are momentos from travels. like a disneyland one from anaheim and a kiwi bird one with dangling rope legs from new zealand. i also have some that are given by friends. for instance one with a chinese character for love given by a friend as a souvenir for her wedding.

I have way too many magnets on my fridge. Some are beyond tacky too. My two favourites are from a trip to Toronto that my boys and I had a few years ago... one showing the cn tower and skydome (or whatever they call it now.. the rogers centre? ), and the other from the Toronto Zoo. I wanted to get some souvenirs from our trip, and fridge magnets seemed the easiest thing. Most of my magnets are dollar store ones. I have cheesy happy faces and a couple of spider man ones too. But the most handy are magnets on the backs of little plastic clips. Those are GREAT for holding some of the boys' school forms for pizza lunches and class trips.

Lol - good question! I used to hate having magnets on my fridge but now have 3 which I know isn't a lot but the only reason I have them is because there are all ones with an important number on them so it's is easier to keep them there so I can easily see the number should I need it!!
