Make Your Own Coasters
Repurposed Cardboard DIY Coasters
-
Using a ruler and pencil, draw the measurements for the coasters on the cardboard.
-
Use the cutter box to make a clean cut.
-
Add tape to cover the cardboard first, just to help with the durability of the coasters later on.
-
Following the measurements of the coasters, I cut four pieces of fabric that I thought would look great.
-
Using the glue gun, I glued the fabric to the coasters, making sure to pay attention to the edges and cutting any extra fabric that might look out of place.
