DIY Coaster Craft

I am a recovering pack rat. There are many things I keep, thinking, “someday I’ll do something with that.” Sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. When my husband picked up these nice leather coasters that a local housing complex was using as a promotional giveaway, I tucked them away in my craft room with the intention of repurposing them. And that I did.

DIY Coasters

All you need for this craft are some coasters to repurpose, paper, scissors or circle cutter and modge podge.

  1. Cut circles out of decorative paper (I used vintage wallpaper) using circle cutter or scissors to fit the face of the coasters.
  2. Use modge podge to adhere them to the coasters surface and let dry.
  3. Seal the top using a layer of modge podge and let dry.

That’s all there is to it. I may keep these for myself, but they’d also make a great gift.

    What artist isn’t a pack rat! We just need adequate storage to hide everything away, fully organized would be ideal! :)

  2. Thanks Katee! Yes, adequate storage is key. It’s an ongoing project at my house, organizing everything. Thanks for your comments!
