I've always envied bars with personalised coasters so when our custom stamper from Maemae & Co arrived, I was inspired to use it to stamp and heat emboss some sparkly coasters for the CO+K cocktail bar!
I've always envied bars with personalised coasters so when our custom stamper from Maemae & Co arrived, I was inspired to use it to stamp and heat emboss some sparkly coasters for the CO+K cocktail bar!
For this you'll need a set of 8 wooden circles, large enough for coasters. You could cut your own but I managed to find a pack at Hobby Craft which were the perfect size.
Lay a sheet of scrap paper on your desk and paint each circle with black paint and leave to dry.
Apply a second coat of black paint if it needs it and leave to dry again.
Gather your materials, you'll need a rubber stamp, glittery embossing powder and ink in a matching colour.
Coat your stamp with lots of ink. Make sure it's coated evenly.
Firmly press the stamp down in the middle of your coaster. Apply a nice even pressure across the stamp to make your design come out perfectly.
Carefully remove the stamp to reveal your design.
Cover the entire coaster with lots and lots of embossing powder.
Pick up your coaster and shake off any excess powder on to the paper. Carefully lift the paper and shake the powder back into it's pot.
Hold a heat gun a few inches away from your design and heat until all the powder has fused.
Continue making a whole set of coasters.
Pour yourself a stiff drink and enjoy your new coasters!
