My husband's best friend turned 30 this year. We don't normally give birthday gifts to grown ups, but Mrblocko thought we should make an exception as this is a special occasion/milestone birthday. Gift cards were suggested as a good present, but that seemed a bit impersonal to me.
Mrblocko and I were stumped. We couldn't think of anything. I got a hold of my best friend to see if she could think of any suggestions. She did a bit of sleuthing on Facebook and found out that the birthday girl liked a certain computer game and Star Wars. That didn't help me at all. Later that night my best friend gave me a call with a brilliant idea. Star Wars Magnets! Lego Star Wars magnets. Cause really, who can't use more magnets? And doesn't everyone love Legos mini figures?
Here is a horrible close up of some of the magnets. They look much better in person. The flash on the glass didn't do the finished product any favors.
I made several other magnets: Captain Rex, Luminara Unduil, Chewie, R2D2, Obi Wan, Jar Jar, and Watto. There was a Han Solo too, but he had an unfortunate accident. Let's just say he's stuck in carbonite and we'll leave it at that.
