When the new window opens with the project on the cutting mat in the top left corner select 4 project copies, so that it cuts them all at once. Cut your project. Use scissors to cut the 4 designs apart. Remove excess vinyl from each design, using the weeder tool to get in the tighter spots. Apply transfer tape over the weeded design, rub in with the spatula tool, and remove the backing from the vinyl. Apply design to the center of each coaster and use the spatula tool to rub the design onto the tile.
Remove transfer tape from design. Apply glue to the cork board and press to the back of each tile. Apply a layer of ModPodge over the vinyl on the top of each finished tile.
Let it dry and apply layers of mod podge for extra coverage.

A little Mod Podge goes along way though so I bet you can make quite a number of them from one container.
I thought I would have to find small vinyl stick on letters but that has presented quite a challenge! Can you give me some guidance? I passed it along to Pam from The Birch Cottage who wrote this post to see if she has any insight. This ought to prevent the bleeding when you apply the sealant. Hi, Peggy. Boy, you ask tough questions! I actually have no experience writing or painting on the tiles.
I have seen people use acrylic paint and even nail polish to create some fun coasters. I may have to purchase a few tiles and do some testing of my own. Hi Peggy, We were so intrigued by your project we shared the dilemma with our Kenarry Creative team to see if anyone else had ideas for you. Meaghan from Cook. I made coasters like this for my grandparents a few years ago. Mod podge the back of the photo and stick it to the clean tile, pressing firmly with a cloth.
Then mod podge the front and sides. And I used homemade mod podge too! Fun idea, Peggy! Have you tried Sharpies? They work well on ceramic mugs and should work great on tiles. Then you can spray them with acrylic sealer. Great find Pam! Just wondering if these coasters actually work at keeping moisture off the wood surface.
It always seems to me that when I put a glass on a coaster that has a smooth surface the condensation seems to roll off the surface and collects around the bottom of the coaster defeating the purpose of the coaster.
The water leaves a ring the shape of the coaster instead of the shape of the glass. Any suggestions? Hi Karen, That definitely depends on how much condensation is on the glass which usually correlates to how much ice you put in your drinks and the air temperature in the room.
If you experience a lot of condensation on your glassware, one of these other DIY coaster projects might be a better fit for you:. Another option would be to stencil or paint a design on more of a porous tile. A porous tile will absorb more of the moisture. Curing gloss enamel paint usually takes 21 days unless you bake it in the oven like I do with these hand painted wine glasses. Is there a way I can use the fabric for the tile coaster? Hi Tina, I think you can definitely use fabric on coasters like this.
Earlier this week we also shared a tutorial for how to make flannel coasters that you might like too. The flannel ones are more lightweight fabric type coasters, but that idea might work with your fabric as well? Would you do me a favor and please circle back and let us know how your coasters turn out and what you learned in this process?
I think that would be helpful to other readers who want to try this with fabric too. Carrie gave you some great resources and tips. I used some fabric on some coasters I made using this same technique and they turned out perfectly. I also highly recommend the Enviro Tex sealant. It puts a nice high sheen and protective finish on the coasters. Would love to see pictures of your finished project and anything insightful you learned along the way! Happy crafting!! The tiles come in a variety of sizes, colors and finishes.
The tiles I used in this project were a bright white ceramic wall tile. Just a word of caution that it will take more of your sealant because of all the little nooks and crannies. I love the look of the natural stone though. I made some coasters out of just natural stone and topped it with the EnviroTex and some out of the natural stone that I applied a vinyl decal to first I created the decal using my Cricut machine. Just sharing this with you to tell you that you have a lot of options!
Hope this helps! I have never used the Envirotex Pour-on high gloss finish. Is it easy to use? Is there a better way to pour it on so that there is not a lot of waste? I am envisioning it running down the sides of the tile and making a mess.
It is very easy to use! Just a couple of cautions. One, the measuring needs to be measured. No guessing or eyeballing. Make sure you measure exactly. So make sure your tiles are on a flat surface and level before beginning. Actually, there is very little waste.
It sets up pretty quickly and you pour slowly. I have seen some people brush it on, but I have never tried that. Just follow the directions and pour slowly. You may want to use a brush to make sure the sides are covered well. There are quite a few YouTube videos as well. Thank you very much for your prompt reply and information.
Looking forward to making my coasters. I will be adding them to Christmas gift baskets I am putting together. I printed maps from the states where the recipients were born and used Mod Podge to adhere them to the tiles. Thanks again! Judy, that sounds fantastic! I design and print my own fabrics and was wondering if I could use fabric in place of scrapbook papers etc.
Absolutely, Robyn! Happy crafting! Hi— I tried the envirotex like you suggested. I love the look of it!!! My coasters were unsuccessful. I think I applied too much because they stuck to the newspaper underneath! Thanks for the suggestion though.
Fortunately ceramic tiles like this are fairly inexpensive so I encourage you to give it a try again. Meanwhile, you might be able to remove the stuck newspaper off this batch by scrapping it off with a razor blade? Give that a try and let us know if it helps fix the issue! Do I apply the sealant after I placed the monogram on the coaster or before?
