Want to spice up your summer? Why not create these bright & happy tile coasters! The best part is, they are very inexpensive to make and can serve as a great gift for any occasion.
Supplies:
4 Square Tiles from your Local
Hardware Store (4.25" x 4.25")
4 Pieces of Scrapbook Paper
(3.75" x 3.75")
4 Pieces of Black Felt
(3.75" x 3.75")
Mod Podge
Sponge Brush
Glue (i.e. Fabri-tac or other
Strong Adhesive)
Krylon “Preserve It” Glossy
Acrylic Sealer
Step One: Cut 4 pieces of
scrapbook paper into 3.75” x 3.75” squares.
Step Two: Cut 4 pieces of felt
into 3.75” x 3.75” squares.
Step Three: Brush one coat of Mod
Podge onto tile.
Step Four: Place one piece of
scrapbook paper on center of tile. Be sure to press down on the paper to ensure
there are no air bubbles and to help the paper stick. Allow coasters to dry for
15 minutes.
Step Five: Brush on another coat
of Mod Podge on top of paper. Allow coasters to dry for 15 minutes and repeat 2
more times.
Step Six: After Mod Podge is
dry, take tiles outside and spray with clear acrylic sealer. Follow
manufacturers instructions. The sealer makes these tile coasters
water-resistant. Allow coasters to dry for 1 hour.
Step Seven: Once dry, glue felt
squares to the bottom center of the tile.
Wrap four of these coasters up with some beautiful ribbon and you've got a gorgeous handmade gift.
