20 DIY Coasters to Add a Creative Twist to Rest Your Beverage Glasses

When we eat meals or snacks, we don’t just attend to the food we have on the plate but also to the plate and other dinnerware as well. Aside from that, we also check on other dining items that create the complete package while we are eating meals. And that would include the placemats, tablecloths, runner and coasters. Coasters might be little things on the table where we place a cup or a glass on to avoid rings on the tablecloth. These come in various shapes and designs.

But aside from the coasters that we can buy, we can also make our own coasters too. As a matter of fact, I find it more appealing to just create our own because it means we can have one that perfectly suits to our theme and would also look pretty creative as well. If you don’t have any ideas on what to do with your coaster, this list we have today will surely give you tons of inspiration!
