How to make your own cork coasters

Hey there everyone!

So glad to see you here today.  Finally, I believe my site is back in circulation and you should be getting me delivered whenever I post.

Sure was lonely here without ya!

Today, I am sharing how to make your own cork coasters.

I whipped these out in no time.

I was thinking how cute these would be for hostess gifts, a teacher gift or just because I like you gift.

I had some left over cork from my upcycled window bulletin board project.

Nothing goes to waste around here and even though I only had a little left, I knew I could make something.

 

What you will need if you want to make the same thing

SUPPLIES:

Cork {I found mine at Walmart}

rubber stamp {found mine at Hobby lobby}

exacto knife

chalky paint or any craft paint will do.  

You can even skip this step if you want and just keep the cork plain.

 

First cut your coasters exactly in a square.  

You can use an existing coaster as your template if you have one.

Paint the cork and let dry for about an hour

 Stamp whatever you like on there.  Of course I did a rooster.

Surprise, Surprise!

I also painted the mason jar while I was at it.  

You can see my all things mason jars post if you like mason jars. I have lots of neat ones there.

I have always said once a paint brush is in hand, you better look out.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Wish we could sit and have a cup of coffee together:)

I love my new coasters.  I am real stickler on using coasters. Nothing worse than water rings on a coffee table.

My boys know better.

They use these burlap coasters I made a few years ago for the coffee table.

See you soon.

If you are not a subscriber I hope you join me. I am always up to something around here.

Stick around, I have plenty to look at:)
