Checkerboard

I made this magnetic checkerboard from an old cookie sheet. This further proves my theory that just about any object that might normally be thrown out can get a new life if you just use some imagination! The board shows a spooky Halloween scene, but you could create almost any theme: one of the four seasons, other holidays, animals, exotic locales. The pieces were made from glass beads with skulls and bats painted on the back. A small magnet was attached to each.
