Removing Photos From a Magnet Photo Album

A great crafting tip shared by Jewel

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Jewel shares, "I found out a way to remove your precious photos from the magnet albums.

Some of my photos where almost impossible to remove, but I read somewhere to use unwaxed dental floss in a sawing motion. Move the floss back and forth along the edge of your photo, holding if flush with the album page until your photos is released.

Another way, is to use a small round item to help remove these photos. After wanting to get my photos out of the album right away, I used my fingernail to gently loosen the edge. I then carefully pulled the photo away from the album and used my pinky fingernail as a tool, moving it back and forth like a saw. It worked like magic. Now all my photos are out of the old albums and ready to be put into photo sleeve albums."

From Sherri: If you are like me and don't have fingernails, try the method Jewel explained using a butter knife instead!
