Materials:
- 4 - 3/4" x 9" (2cm x 23cm) junk mail paper strips
- small magnet
- glue stick
- glue gun
I rolled each strip using a wooden skewer and glued the end with a glue stick. In order to cover the magnet the paper is a bit wider than the magnet.

I hot glued the rolls to the magnet. I made sure not to use too much glue so it wouldn't seep through the rolls (on the front view).

Another option using the recycled paper that I use for wrapping my packages. Here I just used three rolls because the paper is thicker, making each roll wider.
