Making Family History FUN!

I just made the funnest interactive family tree!!! I used a 18x24 poster from www.storiesthatlive.com and taped it to a 18x24 metal sheet (you can get these at your local heating and cooling store). Then I made magnets using a 12x12 scrapbook page and a sheet of 2x2 tiles from Home Depot.

I laminated the poster and attached the pictures to the tiles with Mod Podge then hot glued the magnet to the back.

Jace and I just tried it out. He went from saying "Who's that?" to "Can we do it again, that's fun"

If you want to learn more about how to make this attend Heritage Makers Master class tomorrow August 27th.
