Today I have a tasty and super easy treat for you....
No, not a treat you eat (I should do one of those posts)
But a treat as in something you could use around the house, or you could make a bunch and give away as presents even!
My friend Mary posted a fab tutorial a few weeks back, and I knew I just had to
try to make her creation!
Check out her fab blog Here
Plus she designs for Saturated canary's video team their like a design team but they do videos
And a lot of super fun tutorials!
Ok, so what I made is a couple of super cute coasters.
I was able to pick up a 2 pack of coasters on sale at Michaels.
They are the tile kind with cork on the back, and they were a blue floral pattern.
Here they are halloweenified.... Well sort of!
I wanted Halloween but I wanted to be able to use the coasters after Halloween too!
So I figured the bat was halloweeny, but the sentiment made it universal...
But wait, there is another version as well!
Both of these images started life as a digi!
Yep, from the super talented Angie delarie
Aren't they just the cutest images? And don't they make the cutest coasters?
Ok, a couple more pics
And.....
I love them! Go try this super fun and easy project!

I love your altered coasters! Did you seal them with anything to make them waterproof? Just wondering how the ink would hold up to condensation from cups.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! Adorable! And now I really wish I had purchased those coasters from Michaels! I saw them on sale and figured I would resist. Man, now I am kicking myself....
ReplyDeleteThese are so very cute!! Love the coasters - now I'll be on the look out for some. VERY NICE!!!

Margaret, I put a layer of glossy accent on top, I'm hoping it will seal out the condensation from the cups! I guess only time will tell!
