How to Make Colorful Coasters?

Materials you need:

round cardboard pieces

(you can use your old coasters also if you

want to give them a fresh new look)

3 colors of acrylic paint of your choice

brush

drawing ink and a bamboo-stick

and decoupage glue

Loose brushstrokes. That's all you need.

Have fun! Mix and paint.

After a few minutes as the first layer has already dried

I cut out a heart shape from a piece of not too thick cardboard

and use it as a template.

Use black drawing ink and a sharpened bamboo-stick to embellish.

My lines are uneven and I am very happy with this outcome.

Let them dry. At this point I am really impatient...

so I do something else instead of waiting there...

And finally paint a decoupage-glue-cover layer on top.

It makes the coasters waterproof.

And here they are, ready to use!

Have happy drinks, have fun, have friends!

And I wouldn't be surprised if you want to

paint more. Be ready. New surfaces are thirsty

for refreshment.
