DIY Doily Coasters


These pretty coasters have a nice, elegant look without being too fussy, or too difficult to make. You can change the look dramatically by using a bright felt for the backing for more contrast or keep things subtle with a dark color as we did here.

Things you’ll need:
Small crocheted doilies — Ecru or white
Fabric Stiffener and Draping Liquid
Felt squares – colors of your choice
Clear coat spray
Fabric glue
Plastic wrap
Scissors

Things to do:
1. Spread the plastic wrap out on a flat surface.
2. Soak the doilies well with the fabric stiffener.
3. Spread them out on the plastic wrap and flatten any bumps. Allow them to dry completely.
4. Once they are dry, lightly spray the doilies with clear coat to protect them from moisture.
5. Glue the doily to the felt and allow the glue to dry. Trim away the edges of the felt so that the edge lines up with the edge of the doily.
