A beautiful and original magnet with backlight will be a great addition to the interior in the kitchen, especially if this magnet is made by yourself. We decided to devote this material to a review of the manufacture of just such a magnet.
First of all, we suggest devoting a few minutes to watching the author’s video

So what we need:
- a piece of plexiglass;
- colorless nail polish;
- a piece of food foil;
- a small syringe;
- a small switch;
- Light-emitting diode;
- small batteries;
- adhesive tape;
- a picture printed on the printer;
- magnets.
First of all, it is necessary to glue the printed picture on organic glass and saw off the glass along the edges of the picture.
The syringe will be used to make the backlight. An LED light will be installed at the top. To do this, you will need to bend the LED and solder it to the syringe. Batteries, a switch and foil from the edge should also be installed in the syringe. You need to start by soldering the LED bulb. To do this, cut off the nozzle of the syringe, as well as the lower part, since we do not need them.
Next, we make a hole for the LED bulb and switch, which are previously soldered together.
On a free wire coming from the LED, wrap the food foil, and then install the light bulb in its place.
Next, insert the batteries.
On the second wire coming from the switch, we also wrap a piece of foil. To prevent batteries from falling out of the structure, we cut off the extreme part of the syringe piston and insert it into the structure.
The design with LED can be painted in any color.
To give the picture a glossy glow, the author of the idea advises to seal it with tape and paint it with colorless varnish.
Next, take small magnets and glue them on the back of organic glass.
Finally, we glue the structure with the LED bulb on the side of the Plexiglas so that the bulb is directed to the side of the glass. This is necessary to achieve the desired effect.In a similar simple way, you can get a beautiful fridge magnet with backlight.
