Set of 4 coasters ready for gift giving!
This is how I made them -
I found this game at the DOLLAR TREE in the toy section.
Tumbling Tower is a stacking game. It comes with 36 wood blocks,
perfect for crafting.
I worked with one package at a time.
Every package will make 3 coasters.
Two packages will make 6 coasters.
I wanted to make sets of 4 coasters so I purchased 4 packages.
This is the pattern I used to glue my pieces.
I used Elmer's Wood Glue.
It dries fast and strong.
No sanding necessary.
It makes a Parquet design.
I used my favorite BRIWAX stain. It leaves a beautiful wax finish in one step.
Dark Brown is my go- to color.
Dark Brown is my go- to color.
Use a soft cloth, allow time to dry.
Dollar Tree has these cork dots. You can stick the dots
on the back side to protect your furniture.
I decided to bundle the coasters in sets of 4.
SO......4 PACKAGES FOR $4
Made 3 gift sets of 4 coasters....
I hope I didn't confuse you with my MATH !
Bonus: To use as a TRIVET, put 4 side by side.
Tied the sets together.
Then I added a small piece of greenery.
I may bundle a set to go with my coffee tray.

These coasters are so cute! Did you have to use a clamp when you wood glued them together?
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra
DeleteNo I did not need a clap. The tiles are surprisingly good quality. Just lay flat. They fit together nicely with no gaps.
THANKS FOR VISITING- xo LISA S
I love this! This is a great idea for inexpensive Christmas gifts or host gifts. I may need to go to the Dollar Tree tomorrow :)

Thanks for the great idea! I hope my $tree has the game. I will be making these to give this year instead of making candy! I may even go a step further and stamp their initial on it.
