DIY Mason Jar Lid Coasters

Hey friends!  

It is CRAZY over here, y’all!  We leave in THREE days, and I am running around like a chicken with my head cut off!  Please pray for us!  :)

I have spent almost zero time on my computer this week, but I AM trying to finish some projects at home to share with you while we are gone.  Until then, I am going to do a #throwbackthursday post with one of my favorite projects!  This project is so super easy and inexpensive!  

ENJOY!

DIY Mason Jar Lid Coasters

These coasters were so easy and inexpensive to make!

All you need is:

  • Wide mouth mason jar lids
  • Thin sheet(s) of Cork
  • Stamp of your choice
  • Permanent Ink Pad
  • Hot glue gun
  • Spray paint (color of your choice)

 

Step One:

Trace mason jar lid onto the cork and cut out circle.  (I found these pre-cut cork coasters at Hobby Lobby which made it even easier to cut out.)

Step Three:

Step Four:

Stamp the cork circles with permanent ink.

I found my stamp at Michael’s, and I used my black StazOn ink pad.

I just love them!

And you could create so many different versions of these coasters.

If I were hosting a UK (University of Kentucky) party, I could paint the lids Kentucky blue and stamp a wildcat paw on the cork.  GO CATS!  Smile

If I were hosting a graduation party, I could paint the lids black and stamp a graduation cap on the cork.

If I were hosting a wedding party, I could leave the lids silver and stamp wedding bells or the couples monogram on the cork.

See?!!!  The possibilities are limitless!

If you make some for yourself, I would love to see what you create!

P.S.  I had these wide mouth jar lids left over from another project I recently completed on my blog.

  1. This may be a dumb question but when the drink “sweats” the ink doesn’t run?

    Praying for a safe trip there and back with your new daughter. :-)

  2. What a cute idea.

    Blessings on your trip! Can’t wait to officially “meet” your little girl.

  3. Praying for yall as this journey begins. Can’t wait till you get back home. Wished I could be there at the airport to greet you.

    Hugs,
