Magnet Exchange Advice?

[olookasquirrel]

Has anyone done this before? I've been playing around with making my own magnets and having a lot of fun, but I'd hate to do an exchange with home-made, say, Mickey heads and get something expensive in return...

Also any thoughts on sizing? Silly me thought it was a paired exchange, but it's 12 cabins (and therefore 13 magnets). Oh and did I mention I signed up 4 cabins in my group and volunteered to be responsible for the magnet making? Printing 4 to a page will save me a lot of printing/laminating supplies, but I'm afraid those will end up on the small side... I'm thinking 2 to a page and sucking up the extra cost

On the bright side I signed up 4 out of the 12 total cabins, so whatever I do is going to be 33% of what the entire exchange does

Sounds ambitious. As long as the whole group knows that home-made magnets will be the norm, and not to invest in the expensive magnets, it shouldn't be an issue.

Do you think most people will want to display all the magnets at the same time? That would be a tight fit on the door if you're planning to make each magnet 8.5" X 5.5"
