Another Scrap Project




I saw these cute coasters made of scrap fabric the other day and thought-what a great idea!! love the using up the "too cute, too toss" fabric scraps!!! I made one set of 4 drink coasters I think I will be giving as a gift to the secretary at preschool and then I made a larger hot pad size one for my succulent in the living room. It was on a silver tray, but I like the pop of color more with the white tray. Really simple to made and cheap!!

  1. Did you have a pattern for these? I'd love to make some because i have a lot of really cute scraps that are definitely too cute to toss :)

  2. really easy ali, used rope-I used triple thread clothes line from the dollar tree-about a pinky fingers width, then cut your fabric in thin strips about 1/4-1/2 inch thick and dab with hot glue the end to secure wrap around the rope and with each fabric change add a dab of the glue-after you have all the fabric adhered roll like together and either attach with glue or with thread-the thread is the most common method, but I had a hard time getting my needle through since I used the clothes line and it has a plastic coating.
