SUPPLIES FOR YOUR PHOTO COASTER DIY:

SKILL LEVEL: EASY

this shows the photos of loved ones to use on the on the DIY Photo coaster project

STEP 1: Print out photos to about 1/4″ smaller than the size of your tiles.
(So, for a 4 1/4″ tile you would print out a photo size of 4″)

(IMPORTANT: Print on regular computer paper.)

STEP 5: Gently brush the photo with ModPodge all the way to the edge of the tile.

SUPER IMPORTANT: DON’T RUB the foam brush over the photo or it will bleed and that would be a big bummer!

Now, if you are inpatient like me, you want to wrap these cuties up already!

Wait… you need to give your photo coasters a little time to dry.

So… grab a cup of tea and relax before adding another coat of Mod Podge.

My motto is “one for you and one for me.” …Hee hee!!
