Our take on the Hello Hobby Black Adhesive Magnetic Foam Buttons, 18-Pack

These are small round foam buttons with a peel-and-stick back and a magnetic face, 0.75 inch across, sold 18 to a pack. They turn photos, paper crafts, posters and school projects into fridge and whiteboard displays without glue. The soft foam is gentle on paper and easy to cut or trim. They hold lightweight items only, so they are not a substitute for stronger rare-earth magnets when you need grip on heavier objects.

Questions and answers

Will these hold a photo on a fridge?

Yes, a single photo or sheet of paper is the intended use. They are not strong enough for thick cardstock stacks or heavier objects.

Do I need glue?

No. Each button has a peel-and-stick back that presses onto the item.

What surfaces do they stick to?

The magnet side needs a steel surface such as a fridge, whiteboard frame or metal cabinet. The adhesive side works best on smooth paper and card.

How big are the buttons?

Each button is 0.75 inch in diameter, small enough to sit behind a photo without showing.

Can kids use them?

Yes, they are a common kids' craft supply. Small parts mean young children should be supervised.

How many come in a pack?

18 buttons per pack.
