Recycled CD coasters.

CD coasters

I'm pretty sure my husband is one of the only people out there who still buys CDs at the store. I guess he likes to have a tangible copy in case technology ceases to exist someday...Or something. I think the vast majority of us are all about the digital age, though. It's just so easy to buy digital copies of everything and not have to store CDs, Continue Reading

One dollar flip-flop coaster.

DIY flip flop coasters

I have to admit that I love to wear flip flops year round. I've always lived in climates where you can pretty much do that - though it does get cold here in the south, I've never been afraid of cold feet. Since I love flip flops, naturally I love it when things around me wear flip flops as well - including glasses. Lindsay came up with this genius Continue Reading

DIY handstamped coasters.

DIY handstamped coasters

Sandra is brilliant - she discovered that you can stamp on porous tiles, and if you let the ink dry before Mod Podging, you can complete the project without any smearing. I like it when people are smarter than me and figure things out! If you need a great gift idea, this is a great budget project as well. Visit Sandra to see how they were Continue Reading

I had no idea that you could get doilies in squares. It's definitely true that you learn something new every day. I love these coasters because they use square doilies, but also because Maysem has found a stamping ink that doesn't bleed when Mod Podge is applied. She's just full of crafty surprises! Her tutorial is simple and the results are Continue Reading

Crafts for men: comic book DIY coasters.

Mod Podge comic book coasters

It's so hard for me to think of crafts for men! You may be like me and have a brother who loves comic books - in which case, geeky coasters are the perfect gift for said brother. And trust me, I'm not throwing stones. I'm a Star Wars fanatic. I even have a t-shirt (I wear it) that says "Be Nice to Nerds." Haha! I'm quite pleased with Man Podger Continue Reading

An interesting coaster set.

Mod Podge Coasters

The amazing Patricia from A Little Hut is a fellow Babble Top 50 Craft Blogger - and I was not surprised when I started poking around her bloghouse to find out why. Patricia is really good at everything. Seriously. She says she's a novice with Mod Podge, but she thought of using pretty paper cutouts (rather than just a flat, solid piece of paper) Continue Reading
