Description 

So after dinner at Chili's I took some of the coasters that they pile up on the tables. I didn't like the way they looked so I decided to redecorate!


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    If you're a poor college student, like me, you probably have tons of restaurant coasters lying around. I don't have any regular coasters.


  2. 2
    Step 2

    Grab some magazines and cut out patterns pictures and designs you like! Girly magazines are great cause they have lots of colorful ads. Catalogs would be good too!


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Arrange the images on to the coaster. If it's a big images you can fold the rest over onto the other side and cover both sides! I Mod Podge the images on. You can use glue if you don't have Mod Podge.

    Let Dry.


  4. 4
    Step 4

    After both sides are done I picked the side I liked best for the top and covered that in glitter paint.


  5. 5
    Step 5

    Then I recommend coating the coaster in clear spray paint or varnish to protect it.

    And without spending hardly anything you have some cute coasters!

@Z@!ra- mod podge glues things, such as paper, together but you need a protective layer to cover so something like varnish or sealer will help protect it. I used the coasters without using a sealer and the water from my glass reactivated the stickiness of the mod podge and stuck to my glass. I ruined a couple of these coasters before I figured out I needed a sealer.
