Mod Podge Tile Coasters

Found these fun little DIY coasters that are super easy to make and cheap too!

Like all projects lately, I found this one on Pinterest. I'm thinking Christmas presents... but they're not likely to be a surprise anymore since I put them on here. Oh well, I think they are cool so here's my attempt.

Pinspiration: Tile Coasters

You will need:

• 4 - 5 square tiles (4.25" x 4.25"), white ones are cheapest. I think I payed 13 cents a piece! 
• 4 - 5 pieces of fabric or scrapbook or wrapping paper (3.75" x 3.75")
• 4 - 5 pieces of felt or foam (3.75" x 3.75")
• Mod Podge
• Sponge brush
• Glue, For gluing the fabric or foam to the bottom of your coasters
• Clear acrylic sealer spray paint

Optional:

• Cutting board
• Rotary cutter for fabric

How to:

1.  Cut your fabric or scrapbook paper into 3.75" x 3.75" squares.

2.  Mod Podge the top of you first tile and center your patterned square. Make sure tho get all the air bubbles out from underneath the square, you're gonna put cups full of liquid on them and you want the surface to be flat. Let it dry.

3.  After you let it dry a little, put a layer of Mod Podge on top. Let this dry.

4.  Put a few layers of Mod Podge on the top of the coaster. Do this for all of your coasters.

5.  Once you've properly coated your coaster you'll want to protect it and make it water proof. Spray the acrylic sealer on your coasters. You'll want to give them a few coats of the sealer as well.

6.  While everything is drying, cut your foam or felt into 3.75" x 3.75" squares.

7.  Glue your felt or foam squares to the bottom of the coasters.

8.  Let your coasters dry and cure for a couple of days before you put anything hot on them, but after that you should be able to use them for anything.


You should be able wipe the coasters clean, but they are not likely dishwasher safe.  The best part about this is you can make these for pretty cheap. I had the Mod Podge and the fabric already. The sealer paint wasn't much, maybe $4 but you will be able to use it on other projects. Sponge brushes are from the dollar store. You can find felt and foam both at the dollar store.

These turned out cute and I suggest you go make some this weekend!
