I think you can tell we are excited for Christmas this year! Our customers Jim and Kate have been getting ready for Christmas already. They have created a series of interactive magnetic advent calendars, a creative take on the chocolate advent calendars! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are so happy that they shared this application with us, as we hope it inspires you as much as it does us to get creative this Christmas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this application, they purchased 1X FerroFlex\u00ae 620mm Wide Flexible Ferrous Sheet<\/a> and multiple packs of our 6mm dia x 2mm thick N42 Neodymium Magnet<\/a>. They advised they purchased various wooden Christmas ornaments, along with a variety of felt and decorative materials and some super glue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make the ornaments magnetic they superglued the neodymium discs to the backs of the ornaments. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Next, they looked at creating a Christmas advent back drop. If you are looking to create this yourself, the design is up to your imagination, but if you\u2019re looking for some inspiration check out the various designs they made\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, some were made to gradually dress up a Christmas tree, acting as a countdown to Christmas. The others were created with pockets on, to allow them to take out the magnetic ornaments and place on the Christmas scene to act as a countdown to Christmas! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how what do the magnets attract to the calendar? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where our FerroFlex\u00ae sheet come\u2019s into action. They simply stuck the sheet to their wall and placed a hook above the sheet. This meant they could hang each advent calendar in front of the FerroFlex\u00ae sheet. The magnets used on the Christmas ornaments are strong enough to attract through the fabric to attach to the FerroFlex\u00ae sheet. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Alternative option <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

If you don\u2019t want to attach the FerroFlex\u00ae to your wall, then simply use our magnetic hooks<\/a> to hang the advent calendar on your fridge. As you know, magnets will attract to fridges and will act like the FerroFlex\u00ae sheet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
