Lovebirds and hearts set of magnetic fabric and wallpaper decals

Create a visual narrative with these delightful lovebirds, branch, leaves and extra lovehearts. This is a set of 15 separate magnets; what I call a magnetic wallscape.

These are just delightful to rearrange on the kitchen fridge or any magnetic surface (see below for making a magnetic surface).

This set includes:
- 2 lovebirds
- 4 lovehearts/tailfeathers
- 2 leaves
- 1 quirky branch to perch on
- 6 extra lovehearts
As a guide, the branch measures about 25cm long

This set (as with all of my wallscapes) is designed to be interactive, rearrange the pieces to tell a story. The extra lovehearts are fun to connect, sort and stack and they also made elaborate tailfeathers for the lovebirds as in the pictures.

This set upcycles various hand-picked materials; vintage wallpapers, offcuts of papers, wrapping papers and fabrics. The combination of these selected materials gives the decals a lovely tactile and textured quality. Each set is unique and guaranteed limited edition as I have only limited quantities of my cherished materials.

The backing is isotropic rubber magnet, so these not only look gorgeous on the fridge, they can be functional by holding onto reminders, photos, recipes etc.

My magnetic decals are super slim so they're postage friendly; they ship in a large envelope for the cost of sending a letter - so these are an IDEAL gift to post locally or internationally.

Your set will come packaged simply with an illustration on the label of an arrangement suggestion.

I make all sets to order, so when you checkout please let me know if you'd like your set like the one pictured, or with particular colours/patterns e.g. brights/soft colours, florals, more boyish/girlish, to go on a dark/light wall etc

Any questions? Please message me! I'm all about custom orders :)

* The inspiration:
One day as I was making our daughter a bib out of a cute apple-print t-shirt I found at a local op-shop I looked twice at the oddly-shaped offcuts and envisioned the start of what was to become my community of whimsical decal characters... As a hoarding designer, my offcuts are cherished!

* Suggested uses:
Some of my local supporters have used a set for each child to hold onto school notices on the fridge, some have been bought for bird-loving mothers-in-law to glam up their fridges, some are bought to transform a room as an interactive approach to wall decals, some become the holders of precious family photos, some just are loved as fridge art.

HOW THEY STICK TO THE WALL
If you’re interested in using a set somewhere other than the fridge, here’s a suggestion - create a magnetic canvas on any ordinary surface - we've painted a few spots of walls in our home with magnetic paint. This is easily done in half a day, but there as a permanent magnetic canvas for years to come!

I've written this how-to:

A quick search online shows magnetic paint is available to buy worldwide from hardware and paint stores. In New Zealand, Resene offer a great magnetic paint. Here's a link to some on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Wall-Magnetic-Paint-Magprime-1-Magn/dp/B0007KRDK8

PLEASE NOTE:
* My magnetic wallscapes have a low-intensity isotropic rubber magnet backing. These are not intended for use as toys. For children they can be used as out-of-reach room decor, or rearranged with adult supervision.
* After much loving use the fabric/paper surfaces may show signs of wear around the edges, all part of the charm!
