"Because of COVID I cannot go out and purchase items for financial reasons. BUT I DO have white whiffle balls in my stash. So with those I think that I will take this idea and use some white and lavender daisies that I have in my stash to make these for my craft room. They will be a beautiful addition to my room! I LOVE this idea!"

"Oh dear, you have opened a can of worms there! i too am always picking up beautifully embroidered items at Thrift stores and garage sales. Can't bear the thought to leave them, even if they have holes or are discolored.Iam also a doily hoarder, but have made several bedcoverings out of sheets and doilies, for gifts. I do not embroider myself but soooo appreciate those who do."

"A beautiful hoodie. Instructions are really clear and easy to follow and suitable for a beginner. Sizes come up small. I knitted the 24 month pattern for a 14 month old girl and it was just right. Enjoy knitting!"

In the Designer's Words: "I used watercolor markers to create custom coasters! By using watercolor paper and sealing it with Mod Podge, my artwork is protected from liquid and can be displayed on the coffee table all the time!"

Materials List

  • Watercolor Paper
  • Spectrum Aqua Markers
  • Stamps from Crafter's Companion
  • Mod Podge
  • Plain Coasters
  • Scissors /Trimmer
  • Distress Ink

Instructions

  1. Trim out cardstock to the size of the coaster. I did a set of 4 coasters, so I trimmed out 4 panels.

  2. Stamp images with Distress Ink.

  3. Use watercolor markers and a waterbrush to color in images. I used the same colors, but varied the order of the colors.

  4. Once the watercolors are dry, adhere to coasters.

  5. Seal with Mod Podge and set aside to dry. Seal with a second coat.

  6. The coasters will be ready for use after 24 hours!

I would never know these were handmade. They're so cute and look like they belong in an artsy coffee shop!
