Photo Coasters

Looking for something extra to give your mom this Mother's Day that is unique and shows your thoughtfulness? Then look no further. These photo coasters are easy to make with just a few inexpensive items. Your mother will love having her favorite photos on display everyday and especially when friends and family are over for dinner gatherings or parties.
Photo coasters are a beautifully personalized gift for anyone but especially for your mother this Mother’s Day. I do not know one mother that does not love to receive pictures of her children and family as a gift that can be treasured for years to come. After all family is everything. We have nothing without family.


These photo coasters are a great way to display your favorite family photos when having guests over to your house for dinner. They are a great conversation piece and a way to show off your most favorite family photos.


Many mothers are also very diligent about keeping their house clean. That includes keeping those water rings off of her coffee tables. What better way to prevent those nasty rings than with a family photo.


They may be beautiful to look at, but they are also just as simple and inexpensive to make. With a few simple steps, you will have a DIY craft that every mother would love to receive this Mother’s Day. Mothers also love receiving things that their children made for them. Sometimes it is just simply more about the thought that went into a gift than it is the actual dollar amount spent.


Because it is so simple, any age child could make these. You may find that your children would love to make a set for their grandmother with your help a little bit. I also think of women and friends in my life that are special to me that would love to receive these as a gift.


Let’s not waste any time though. Your mother will love opening this special gift this Sunday.


You will need:


Pictures


Scissors or craft paper cutter


Mod podge- There are many different types of mod podge. I had the matte style. It really just depends on what style you really want.
Mod podge clear acrylic sealer- You will not need a lot of the sealant but can definitely use the leftover for any future craft projects. Plus once you make these coasters, you will want to make many more for other occasions.

    But once you put pictures down and then modem podge them, doesn’t that make them non absorbant, thereby making them useless as coasters?
