Hooked on Paint Magnets

Hooked on Paint Magnets

What’s to love: Designed specifically for use with magnetic paint.

What does it do: These magnets are made with multiple magnetic regions creating what the company calls a Polymagnet and are said to hold five times more weight than other magnets. One side of the magnet is covered with double-stick tape; the other side has a textured backing to protect walls. Once a wall is coated with magnetic paint, apply the tape side to frames, decorations, plaques, etc., and simply use the magnet to attach to the magnetic paint. With the magnets, there are no nail holes and wall decor is easy to rearrange. A package with two magnets sells for $7.99.
