Tile Coasters

These are not a recent project. In fact, I made these for Christmas presents before I even had a blog. I have made several of these for gifts using pictures, word art, and other things and I cannot begin to tell you what a great response they receive! These are 3"x3" tile coasters with the image of your choice on the front and cork on the bottom (the bottom is completely covered to protect the surface you place your coaster on). The image is safely sealed on the tile and is safe to be used with the beverage of your choice.


Coasters come in a set of 4 with the image of your choice for $15.00. I will be accepting orders at the Faith United Methodist Church Ladies Night Out Event or pre-shoppers can order now by emailing me and pick up your coasters at the event! These make great Christmas gifts for grandparents!
