We have a ton of wood furniture in our house which means we need a lot of coasters. I’ve been looking at different ways to make my coasters fun though so I don’t just have a bunch of boring circles lying around the house. Last week, I shared my chalkboard coasters that I made from ceramic tiles. They chalkboard coasters are perfect for parties but I wanted something to use on other occasions too. I had gotten some wallpaper from Spoonflower and didn’t use it all so I decided to make wallpaper coasters.
The supplies for this are super easy to find: ceramic tiles, leftover wallpaper and mod podge.
Using the ceramic tiles a guide, cut the wallpaper to fit.
Add a layer of mod podge on top of the ceramic tiles and place the wallpaper on top. Smooth out and let dry. Then, brush on a light layer on top of the wallpaper. Let dry completely.
Once dry, glue a small cork disk on the bottom to protect your furniture.
Once the hot glue dries, flip them over and start using them!
What are your favorite types of coasters? Do you typically make your own or buy them from the store?

Awesome Shanna!

Thanks Lisa! This was such a super fun craft to work on. I can’t wait to use them.
These are great. Believe it or not, I am waiting for the modge podge on mine to dry and decided to take a break and do some blog surfing. I used scrapbook paper but same idea. I love the pattern of the wall paper.
