Remove the clips after the compound is fully dry. You can leave the note pad as is or you can attach a magnetic strip to the back to make a refrigerator note pad.
What are some of the ways you’ve used recycled cereal boxes? Mine are still piling up and I would love to hear more ideas and suggestions! Feel free to leave links and notes in the comments.
I am a middle school art teacher. We use cereal boxes to make the forms for paper mache 3-D sculptures. We also recycle school supply catalogs from teacher mailboxes for strips (instead of using masking tape) to create the form. Click on link below to see the letter (initial) sculptures that we made.

We use cereal boxes for painting. My 4yo can put as much paint as she wants on the cereal box and her project won’t get soggy like paper can. We also use our cereal boxes to make notebooks and post cards.

Great ideas! Now I have an abundance of things to do with my nephew which is great.
I use cereal boxes for storing and organizing kids craft supplies as well as drawer dividers.

Why not cut up cereal boxes to make Artist Trading Cards?
