DIY Cork Coasters

Autumn for me is all about the beautiful colors created by falling leaves. We have some that are burnt orange, red and yellows. These DIY coasters allow you to add the beautiful colors of the season in a super easy and practical way. These coasters also make for a great hostess gift.

Here's what you do:

Cut the leaf design onto cardstock with the cut file and die cut machine. Create a leaf that’s about 3" in size. Cut as many as you’ll need for your coasters.

Cut the cork sheets to 4" squares.

Adhere the leaf on the center of the cork sheets using Repositionable or Removable Dots.

Paint over one side of the cork sheet, covering the die cut leaf. Set aside to dry.

Remove the die cut leaf carefully from the cork sheets.

Adhere the cork coasters onto felt using Ultra-Thin Dots and trim the excess using some scissors.

Stack the DIY coasters and wrap with some twine for a cute hostess gift.
