Here is what you'll need:
**Scrapbook Paper of your choice cut into 4" x 4" squares (or whatever size your tiles are)
**Small Tiles (~4" x 4")
**Mod Podge (or your homemade version of Mod Podge)
**Foam Applicator
Step 1: Using your foam applicator, apply a coat of Mod Podge on your tile. Don't use too much, just a light coating will work.
Step 2: Add a piece of your scrapbook paper on top of the newly applied Mod Podge.
Step 3: Line up how you want it and make sure to smooth down the edges of the scrapbook paper. If you need to add more Mod Podge to make the edges smooth down, add some more. It might take some doing to get the edges to dry the way you want them too.
Step 4: Allow to completely dry. (If you need to trim your scrapbook paper, an Xacto Knife works wonders.)
Step 5: Add your first coat of Mod Podge on top of your scrapbook paper. Make sure to apply to all sides except the bottom. I applied a good coat.
Step 6: Allow your first coat to completely dry.
Step 7: Add a second coat of Mod Podge making sure to cover all sides except the bottom.
Step 8: Allow your second coat to completely dry.
Step 9: OPTIONAL: If you feel you need to add a third coat of Mod Podge, go ahead and add it. Make sure to allow to completely dry.
Once your coasters are completely dry, begin using them! :)
