Earlier this month on my Friday Finds, I shared Heather's cute idea for
terracotta pot saucer coasters over at
Sunshine and Some Tea |
My version for my front porch has French labels of course. (You know how I am about French Labels!)
I started with terracotta plant saucers and painted them white.
Then I decoupaged them with these free French label graphics from The Graphics Fairy.
(I added the location of each label below its photo for you.)

And here are my completed French label coasters.
Tres chic, n'est-ce pas? I love that they stack and fit here perfectly on my front porch tray. Super easy and inexpensive, and no more rings on the table top and porch railing from cups, glasses, cans, and bottles!
I hope you'll leave a comment with a link to your coasters if you make some. I'd love to see what you've done, too.
Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

What can't a bottle of mod-podge and something from the Graphics Fairy solve?!

Laurel,
ReplyDeleteI just love these! What a great idea to use those inexpensive terracotta pot holder thingies (I know. You're amazing by my technical speak) ...
So I pinned them because I need to make some. They'll be perfect for when my diet coke (and Margarita) gets all sweaty in the summer!
:)

Love your coasters! Don't you know how much those would cost in some little chic boutique?!? Yours are so beautifully whimsical. Can you tell me, what size of terra cotta planter saucers you used for them and how much you had to reudce your label to get the correct size? I'm new at this kind of thing and kind of feeling my way through.
ReplyDeleteI like! Simple, yet classy
ReplyDeleteI love this idea, and so simple! Looks like you just gave me a new project. I am your newest follower~hope you will pop over for a visit! Angie

Your coasters are so cute! I completely missed this post somehow. Congrats on being featured on My Repurposed Life!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love your coasters, they are so pretty. Perfect for anywhere. I was thinking about using the plastic pot saucers for in the house with the kids, running everywhere. But these will be in a lot of Christmas gifts this year. Once again, Thanks.
