Step-by-step tutorial
Step 1
We used two different colors of chalkboard paint. Yes, it comes in colors now! You could keep it simple or stir things up a bit.
Step 2
Emma got to painting each tile with the black paint first. It needs several coats to cover completely.
Step 3
Once the black paint dried, we added some pretty details with the blue chalkboard paint. Emma used a q-tip to make flowers and designs.
Step 4
Again, we let the coasters dry completely. The final step was to add some felt rounds to the bottom to be fully functioning coasters.
Final result!
A test drive was absolutely necessary. What a cool gift!
