DIY Weekly: Customized Coasters

               
               This creation of mine was from a little while back around last summer. It is simply turning a boring glass coaster to a creative customized one! Unfortunately last summer I didn't think of starting a blog so there aren't any step by step photos :( But there is no need for that! What I did was trace the outline of the coaster on the front of the picture with a ballpoint pen. This way, you could see how the picture or design is going to fit. Then cut it out.

          On the bottom of the coaster, there should be these little rubber semi circles to give the coaster a nice grip on the surface. Roughly pluck them off (not too rough, or else they'll be flying across the room :O) Save them on the side, you're going to need them. Next, use a purple Elmer's glue stick and glue the picture. The glue will look purple at first but turn invisible as it dries. Now, put a generous glob of glue and put it on each of the little semi circles. Then place the semi circles in a triangle shape (as seen to the left). Let it dry facing up for at least 2 hours or until it is fully dried.
           Finally you are done! This quick and easy DIY is great for gifts to give to friends, home decor, and more. You can either use an actual picture that is printed out, or a design. The one I have to the right is actually a card my art teacher gave me. It had a pretty cover so I used it for this coaster. This idea was created originally by me :) It's fun, easy, and convenient! Although I'm not too sure if people even still use coasters these days :-/
