Today, I thought I would share my thoughts on a Tutorial my mom and I worked on a few weeks back. I am a softy for cute coasters, so when I saw the Tree Stump Coaster D.I.Y tutorial on A Beautiful Mess, I knew I had to try it. I showed it to my mom, and she loved it, so I bought some felt, and we dedicated an afternoon to making a bunch. I was in a hurry, when I went felt shopping, so I just got some craft felt, and that is really the only thing I would change about the coasters. Some true, wool, felt would be much more absorbant, methinks. Anyway, we got to stitchin' and here is how they turned out.
I think they are pretty great! We made about 10 in total, and they look terrific in our living room. For some design context, here are some chairs we are getting in the New Year.
How cute will that be? Anyway, if you like a little woodland whimsy in you living spaces, try your hand at these coasters. They are simple and cute and ever so useful! Thanks to Elsie and gang at A Beautiful Mess, for another great idea!
they turned out really cute! i think the design is so much fun!
