Tree Stump Coasters - DIY
I had the idea of making tree stump ornaments last Christmas, so I asked ifmy sister (who uses wood to heat her house) had any old Christmas tree stumps in her piles. She found a cedar stump that was a nice width that had been in the pile for over a year allowing it to fully dry.
When I went to make the ornaments, they weren't turning out to be exactly what I wanted. After leaving one of the circles sitting on my kitchen counter for a week (does anyone else do that, you don't have a home for something so it sits on the counter?) I realized that it was the perfect size for a coaster. So my gift for the men was found! I ended up making these simple and free tree stump coasters for my husband, brother, brother-in-law and uncle.
Stop by for a step by step guide on how to make these. They really are very simple!
Everyone loves them and we use them all the time.
