DIY Wood-Slice Watercolor Coasters

The best way to protect your tabletop is to give guests someplace stylish to set down their drinks. These DIY coasters fit the bill. Each wooden coaster is cute and easy to make. Plus, the thick wood slices provide durable protection against damaging water rings.

To make your coasters, you'll need wood slices, food coloring, and a few other crafts supplies. Each handmade coaster can be customized with an array of fun colors. We used blue, green, and yellow dye for our coasters, but pastels, hues in an ombré, or the shades of your favorite sports team would also work. After you make a set for yourself, keep the fun going and make a set to gift.
