Monogrammed Coasters

These monogrammed coasters can be made to match any decor and would make a thoughtful hostess gift for the upcoming holiday parties.



What You Need:


  • Round  Cork Coasters, 4" diameter (can be purchased at craft stores or cut out of a sheet of cork)
  • Scrapbook Paper
  • Monogram Letters Cut From Scrapbook Paper (sized no larger than 3.5")
  • Mod Podge
  • Glue
  • Acrylic Sealer
How to Make It:
  • Place coasters on reverse side of scrapbook paper. Trace the shapes and cut out circles (if you have a die-cutting machine, you can also cut a 4" circle).
  • Glue paper circles onto coaster. For our project, we used 2 coordinating papers and cut a 4" circle from one and a slightly smaller circle from the other.

  • Center the monogram letters in the middle of the coaster and glue down.
  • Next apply several layers of Mod Podge over surface of coaster, allowing each layer to dry completely before applying another (Mod Podge goes on white, but dries clear)
  • Once Mod Podge dries, apply a good coat of acrylic sealer to help waterproof the coasters.

  1. Acute injury: An ice pack for knee should be applied for the first time of the injury. The sooner the ice pack is applied, the better the effect of reducing swelling; the ice pack can also be applied in the next 2 to 3 days until the swelling subsides. If there is no ice pack in the first few days after the injury, the injured local is still painful and swollen, and it can also be relieved by ice, but the effect will be reduced.
