5. Modern Boho Sunburst Magnet

Embrace warm, earthy tones with radiant sunburst motifs that inject energy and retro-modern styling straight onto your refrigerator door.

  • Materials Needed: Mustard yellow, rust brown, and cream clay; a circular cookie cutter; a craft knife; and superglue.
  • Step-by-Step Instructions:
    1. Cut a small center circle out of your rust-colored clay using a tiny circular cutter or piping tip.
    2. Roll out thin, tapered spikes of mustard yellow clay to act as the sun rays.
    3. Arrange the rays radially around the central circle, gently pressing them into the base to secure the bond.
    4. Press a small backing disc of cream clay behind the entire assembly to anchor all the delicate ray pieces together securely.
    5. Bake or air-dry completely, then attach a strong flat magnet to the rear anchor disc.
  • Pro Tips: Ensure the center connection point is thick enough; thin ray joints can become fragile if the magnet is pulled off the fridge abruptly.
  • Variations: Swap the sunburst motif for a half-circle rising sun resting over a minimalist horizon line.
