The Easiest Personalized Teacher's Coaster! So Fun and Easy To Make!

[@mw9710]

Great idea ! Just a idea maybe add white to the bottom for those who would’nt want The Cork part to show

[@dorothymitchell771]

I love your beautiful idea my grandson has started back to school and I would love to make a gift 🎁 for his teachers thanks so very much have a good day and please be careful out there

[@rebeccamoerno8356]

Those are cute, I made my grandson keychains for his teachers.

[@phyllisgast8357]

These coasters / paperweights are the cutest teacher gifts I have ever seen!!! Court, you knocked them out of the park 👏👏👏 👍 💜💜💜

[@CourtneysCustoms]

Aww thank you so much!💜

[@laurajump780]

These are really great. I'm new to resin crafts & my son & I are going to try making similar ones for his 3 teachers 😀🤩

[@tillyortiz8942]

I made 7 coasters I found that cork at Hobby Lobby with adhesive & used my circle die cut and it cut like butter...I like how the cork on the back gives it stability as well.

[@nicoletest-fw2zh]

How long did you wait between each layer? Thanks!

[@Thatonekev11]

When it’s completely hardened, I guess

[@specialk8927]

Coaster looks so thick, the cork is a good idea but it takes the prettiness from it when it was clear

[@daciasdiy1861]

i agree. If I don't use color. I'm gonna use the little clear silicone dots on the back

[@Inspired2kraft]

They turned out beautiful! I make mine a totally different way so that I can have a glitter background, but this is another great way of making these coasters 😍

[@CourtneysCustoms]

A glittered background would be gorgeous too!!😍

[@the1socialmediadivafloyd470]

Hi! Thank you for this video! I am a teacher and I want to make these for my teacher friends. Can you tell me how many bottles of the KS Resin Liquid Art you used for these? If I get one package of the 4floz will that be enough to fill all 6 molds?

[@suestefan1750]

I have a question on 1 video I believe u let the bottom coat dry before adding crayons etc then added second, another video you put them in with 1st coat, why and which is easier for a beginner? Also, do you torch the bubbles out before glitter and why not torch glitter

Great video! I just started with epoxy recently. I make pen blanks and handles for bottle openers and bottle stoppers for wine. I wanted to try to make coasters, but I have a question. Are there any problems with the layers of epoxy separating? I never put new resin on top of hardened resin. Also, use a blow dryer to take out the little bubbles. It works. Thanks.

I have those same molds. I read all of the comments so that I wouldn’t repeat a question. How much resin did you mix?

Hey there, I followed all of your steps and used the same exact mold, sprayed the alcohol, and same epoxy…but when I pulled them out, the bottom was still sticky even the the tops were completely dry. I turned them upside down thinking they would dry, but it’s been three days and the bottom is still sticky. What am I doing wrong?

[@1msmcclendon]

Need to make one for gala. Military. When can I put logo on it

[@CourtneysCustoms]

Put a logo on it after the epoxy is cured that you poured to fill it up. But don’t fill it up completely because after you add a logo you’ll need to add epoxy to seal it
