Me and all my friends are in LOVE with emojis and have made just about everything…After always getting in trouble for leaving wet cups on the table, we came up with the perfect thing…Emoji Coasters!! lol
Here’s how you make them:
Step #1 Gather your supplies
1. Gather your supplies and lay them all out so you don’t have to go looking for stuff in the middle. Next, Google “emojis” and pick a few of your favorite ones or you can also get ideas from Pinterest. There are lots and lots and lots!
Step #2 Paint
Squirt a small amount of each color paint onto a paper plate. Use a foam paint brush to paint your coasters yellow, and let dry (they probably will need more than one coat).
Step #3 Draw
Draw your designs onto your coasters using a paint pen or sharpie. Then trace over your designs using paint and a small tipped paint brush. For example, the heart-eyed emoji I drew the outlines of the hearts using a red paint pen and then filled it in using red paint. Then used a black paint pen for the mouth and filled it in using black paint.
Step #6 Dry
Let your coasters dry for several hours before you use them. These are really fun to make and can be given as cool gifts.

Cute ide!!
Thanks!
How fun! Love this creative idea for kids. I can see expanding it for an adult craft and choosing other types of designs to paint on the coasters. Quilt block designs especially work well on coasters!
