Chalkboard Tile Coasters.


I had some inexpensive tiles leftover from a craft project that didn't go so well so I decided to do something with them and I came up with these chalkboard coasters. They are really easy to make and I love that I can draw pretty pictures on them.


You'll need:

tiles (you can find them at Home Depot for less than 15 cents each)
chalkboard paint
an old towel or paintbrush
chalk
felt
fabritac

This project is pretty simple.
Paint your tiles with chalkboard paint using an old towel or paintbrush.
Once dry, add another coat of paint.
Cut out some felt and fabritac it to the bottom of the tiles, to prevent them from slipping/scratching your table.
Roll chalk all over the surface and wipe off.
Your coaster is now ready for you to draw on and enjoy!


They make a really easy and cute gift, especially for housewarmings. 


Mark which drink is yours by writing your name on it or drawing your own personalized design.

  6. Great idea, especially if you have guests over. You could label their spots at the table.
