My Magnet Collection

This is just one door of my refrigerator magnet collection. I'm trying to come up with a way to display them elsewhere in the kitchen. My husband bought me an 8" X 24" sheet of metal. I want to frame it with wood, but I'm not good with power tools. Actually, I'm scared to death of them. I'm liable to drill my hand open.

I proposed the project to Create magazine. I figured, if I'm going to do it anyway, I may as well have another reason to force myself. Unfortunately, I haven't heard anything from them. Not that it matters. I have to try this (though I really wish my husband would drill the holes for me next time he's in town).

I've been collecting these magnets (the thick, rectangular style) almost as long as I've been collecting dolphins. I haven't counted lately, so I'm not sure how many I have now. It has to be around 100 by now.
