For Christmas I used my scroll saw to make some dinosaur magnets for Mallory.  She really likes dinosaurs and doesn’t seem to have anything serious against magnets, so I figured it was a “good idea”.

I drew them and cut them out and painted them with speckles.  I really like the look of speckled paint.  I applied too much paint too quickly so some of the dinosaurs have a pebbly texture.  This worked out because it made them look like they had rough reptilian skin.  Huzzah!

Check it out, they work!  Mallory’s photograph is being held up by powers that defy gravity.  Amazing, right?

Here is a fun fact: the speech bubble magnet didn’t always say “WHAT”.  It originally had printed on it another four letter word but then I decided it wouldn’t be prudent to leave it as it was.  I’ll bet you can’t guess what it used to say.
