I look at this coaster every single day and just realized that I've never taken a picture of it. This was one of the first tests that I did for decoupage and stamping. It's a very simple idea - just stamp an image on some scrapbook paper, adhere it to a ceramic tile, and seal it lots and lots of times. Then put some cork on the back to avoid scratches (very easy since there's an adhesive-backed version of Contact paper now). This one is sitting on my work desk so I can test its ability to withstand daily use. So far, so good, and I've been using it for several months now.
The most frustrating part about this project is packaging. I made a set of coasters for a friend of mine and just happened to have a box that was the PERFECT size for a set of 4 coasters. It was part of a set of nested boxes. I cannot find another box that size anywhere. I recently spoke to someone about this and they told me that they know someone who knows someone who makes boxes. But now I've forgotten who that is (sorry!), so if you happen to be reading this, please let me know!!
