I've been looking for coasters for about a year. I don't know what the deal is, but I just can't find any that I like that doesn't cost an outrageous amount and that matches my living room. I found this idea on Pinterest, and had to try it.
Inspiration:
Final Product:
What you need:
-coasters- about .44 cents each
-scrapbook paper- .59 cents (with half off)
-Mod Podge- $4.99 a bottle
-brushes
-felt pads
-clear acrylic spray
Instructions:
1. Brush mod podge onto coaster.
2. Cut scrapbook paper to just under the coaster (you don't want the paper hanging over the edge), and lay on top of coaster.
3. Spray a coat of the clear protector ontop of dried coasters. This protects from water, etc.
4. Apply felt to bottom of the coasters so they won't scratch your furniture.
3. Apply 3 coats of mod podge to coaster. (Let each layer dry before applying the next layer.)
I love the houndstooth! That's my favorite part of the coaster. They turned out really well, and I'm so excited. Now, I just need to find a small basket to keep these in when not in use!
What do you think?
