I made my hubby Star Wars Coasters for his birthday!! They came out really nice and he loved them. I had to make them very quickly while he was out of the house!
Here is a quick re-cap of how I made them and my mistakes.
Some Bunny Tips are included if you are going to make them yourself!
Materials
Scissors
Hot Glue Gun
Scrabble Tiles (Mine were a heavy plastic)
Ruler or Measuring tape
Thin Cork Board (got mine at Michael's)
Step 1
First I measured a coaster I had in my home and planned on making coasters
with four letter words. Then I wrote out my combinations for each coaster.
Step 2
Arrange your letters. I measured and pre-cut the cork board into coasters.
Step 3
I hot glued the tiles directly onto the cork board and to each other as I placed them.
Step 4
After the glue dried, I trimmed any extra cork board.
Bunny Tips-
1) Some of the Coaster have warped a little bit. Next time I would but a heavy book on top of the coasters as they dry.
2) I ripped a couple coasters when gluing the letters on... It may be easier to glue all the letters to each other AND then back it with the cork board.
