Summer is all about cold beverages, and when you’ve got a frosty drink, you need a coaster. And, of course, you need that coaster to be cute. Cute and handmade. Now that’s a coaster worthy of the cocktail you’re sipping! Here are 10 DIY coasters to choose from!
1. Easy Fabric Coasters – Fabric coasters only use small squares of fabric. Did someone say stash-buster?
2. Tile Mosaic Coasters – Leftover tiles plus pretty broken glass in a rainbow of colors make beautiful coasters!
3. Map Coasters – Non-toxic Mod Podge seals those pretty vintage maps, so you can use them to create a nostalgic set of coasters.
4. Chalkboard Coasters – Give an old set of coasters a new life with a coat of chalkboard paint and some stencils. These are holiday-themed, but you can use any stencils you like for your coasters.
5. Stamped Tiles – This will work best with a porous tile. If you’ve got something on hand that fits the bill, these coasters are very inexpensive to make.
6. Fallen Branch Coasters – You don’t need power tools to make these, but they do take some elbow grease. The result is well worth it, though!
7. Washi Tape Coasters – Combine coordinating spools of washi tape to make pretty covered coasters.
8. Fabric Coasters – Think of these as teeny, tiny rag rugs for holding your favorite cocktail.
9. Rope + Neon Coasters – The idea here is similar to the fabric coasters above, but the feel of the finished product is totally different.
10. Painted Lace – This page doesn’t have a written tutorial, but the image collage really says it all. Use lace as your stencil for vibrantly spray painted coasters.

Some great ideas here! My favorite is the fallen branch ones. Nothing beats the beauty of Mother Nature :0)
