Coasters have an important job around the house. They protect our wood surfaces from water marks and stains caused by the condensation that forms on cold beverages. Instead of going out and buying whatever the store has, try making your own coasters. They’re infinitely cooler, more fun and can help your surfaces with style. Here’s how to make your own DIY coasters!
For a simple but stylish coaster, use those mason jar lids you have accumulated. Just add some cork with some paint and a stencil to add your last initial. See a full tutorial at Life of Bliss.
If you happen to have a cowhide style rug, then these coasters are for you! Oh So Beautiful Paper shows you how to create DIY mini cowhide coasters. They’re pretty amazing!

One of the easiest yet fanciest types of DIY coasters is to decoupage wallpaper patterns onto ceramic tiles. The Cottage Mama did it, and so can you!
