I can get so inspired when I go to the Dollar Tree. That happened not too long ago when I went there to buy napkins and came home with so many fall themed things to use for crafts. That is just what happened when I saw these little Jack O Lantern pumpkins. I instantly knew they would become the cutest Halloween coasters.
The first step was to cut 4 pieces of wood.  I decided on 4 inches by 4 inches.  You can always buy wooden coasters if you don’t have a saw. Use black craft paint and paint the wood black, front, back, and sides.  Glue a piece of 4 inches by 4-inch black felt to the bottom. 
Using a piece of chalk, trace the pumpkin face on the wood.  I placed it on the diagonal for a little interest. 
Brush white glue in the chalked lines.  Then sprinkle silver glitter over the glue.  Allow it to dry.
Glue the pumpkin face over the glittered areas.  Once that is dry, apply a couple coats of mod podge over the coaster to protect it.
Now pour your favorite beverage and enjoy your Jack O Lantern coasters.
