Coasters and a Snowman or Two ;)

I have a couple of bored 9 year olds at my house that are anxious for Christmas to come and needed to use some of their restless energy. We found an idea online and decided to create some of our own. They did the entire project on their own and I think they turned out great!!!

My hubby is a big coaster user. He always has been one that needs a coaster. I was watching a show one time (can't for the life of me remember what is was!) and a guy came in and sat his drink on the table, his friend turned and said to him, "What are you an animal?" because he didn't put a coaster down. It cracked me up because that would be my hubby for sure!

Anyway, people at work had been teasing him about the coaster that he uses at board meetings, etc. So, he decided it would be great to make all of them a personalized coaster. Here is what I came up with. I will post a supplies list below. They are super easy and I think they turned out great. I ended up making 22 of them :)

Supplies: 4X4 in tile, vinyl, felt circles (for the bottom), and some type of sealer (I used some stuff I got at Hobby Lobby called Triple Thick). I used my cricut to cut the vinyl and then applied it to the tile and sealed it. Placed the four felt circles on the bottom and was done :)

Neighbor Gifts. . .

So, here is the idea that I used for my neighbor Christmas gifts. . .

I actually didn't come up with the idea, I "craft-lifted" the idea from HERE.
Blue Cricket Design has some SUPER cute stuff!

The idea wasn't mine, but the corny poem was :) I thought it was pretty dang creative if I do say so myself!

They were super fun to make and I think that the neighbors should actually get some use out of them. I would think they were cute if someone gave them to me!
