ok so I've been really into branch themed projects lately because we have had a ton of trees down and i want to use them for something! I would like to thank Jet H. for her branch bead tutorial because without it there would be bugs crawling all over my drinks! so i would like to give her credit for part of this tutorial! THANKS!!!

Gather your materials sorry no picture
Cut your branches to the thickness you like you may need the chainsaw for this step. i cut it to about a half inch or about 1.5 centimeters for most sorry no picture
put your slices on a baking sheet in the oven at 100 degrees Fahrenheit or 40 degrees Celsius for 30 mins at 100 or 40 then turn the oven off and leave the slices in the oven for an hour Thanks Jet H.! my oven only let us put 170 degrees Fahrenheit as the lowest so we did it at 170 for
hot glue them together how you want
test it out with a tester cup sorry no picture
sand the bottoms down if necessary to make the coasters even sorry no picture
and mod podge!
the next time guests come over put your brand new coasters out and when they ask where you got them you can say "my backyard!" lol HAVE A BLAST SHOWING THEM OFF!
