My kids were helping me clean out old boxes the other day when they stumbled across my old Mr. Potato Head doll. Before I knew it, my beloved spud looked more like something Picasso would’ve dreamt up than my favorite childhood toy. The kids got such a kick out of giving him arms for legs and replacing his ears with feet, I knew I had to somehow recreate this magic. With Fiskars Amplify Mixed Media Shears, Funny Face Magnet Gift Wrap is simple to make and quite literally gives each gift magnetic personality.
Creating this clever cast of characters is a cinch using Fiskars Amplify Mixed Media Shears. With just a few snips, you can make a mustached man of mystery, give glasses to a toothy grin, or add that special je ne sais quoi to a rosy-cheeked french girl. The stainless steel shears easily cut through even the most adventurous and heavyweight materials, like magnet, and give complete control over each and every shape you make.
To make things even cooler – the gifts are disguises in and of themselves. A layer of wrapping paper covers the magnetic sheets underneath, making it a fun surprise when your kids discover that the boxes are toys, too! The box top and base are wrapped separately, so when it’s finally time to open presents, the gift wrap will remain intact. Kids can mix and match accessories and facial features to create countless combinations of characters before Christmas morning arrives, and long after the holidays are over.
