I love these two. I really do. But I wish they were more OCD like me. Every night I clean up the mess that my son has made of my desk. Add to that the chaos of trying to run my own business and manage a household and you can imagine that things get a little stressful around here. Oh, and did I mention I&#8217;m 25 weeks pregnant, so I&#8217;m a little high-strung these days. Seriously, the littlest thing may send me into a preggo fit! The latest thing driving me crazy are\u00a0 the glass and bottle stains\u00a0on my tables, desks, pretty much any flat surface in our living room\/Westley&#8217;s play-space.<\/p>\n<p>I get it. My husband and I can only do so much, but that doesn&#8217;t mean civility and class have to go out the window. So to maintain my sanity and tidiness at home, I decided to create some super cute coasters. \u00a0We have some, but they&#8217;re just black plain cloth coasters. These babies I came up with SPARKLE! And who wouldn&#8217;t want to take the extra effort to use something that sparkles on a daily basis? So let&#8217;s get started with tonight&#8217;s #htgawcrafting project!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Supplies to Make DIY\u00a0Glitter Washi\u00a0Coasters<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.silhouetteamerica.com\/shop\/machines\/cameo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silhouette\u00a0CAMEO<\/a> cutting machine<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Silhouette-America-Chipboard-12-Inch-25-Pack\/dp\/B00B4AUFPA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silhouette 12 x 12 Chipboard\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joann.com\/heidi-swapp-marquee-love-washi-tape-2in-gold-glitter-8\/14318588.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heidi Swapp Marquee Love Washi Tape 2&#8243;-Gold Glitter, 8&#8242;<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joann.com\/heidi-swapp-marquee-love-washi-tape-2in-white-glitter-8\/14318547.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heidi Swapp Marquee Love Washi Tape 2&#8243;-White Glitter, 8&#8242;<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joann.com\/heidi-swapp-marquee-love-washi-tape-2in-pink-glitter-8\/14318505.html#q=Marquee%2Bwashi%2Btape&amp;prefn1=prod_type&amp;sz=18&amp;start=19&amp;prefv1=Product\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heidi Swapp Marquee Love Washi Tape 2&#8243;-Pink\u00a0Glitter, 8&#8242;<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Heart EPS or AI file<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/8oz-mod-podge-matte\/-\/A-17089118?ci_src=17588969&amp;ci_sku=17089118&amp;ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&amp;AFID=google_pla_df&amp;CPNG=PLA_Seasonal%2BShopping&amp;adgroup=SC_Seasonal&amp;LID=700000001170770pgs&amp;network=g&amp;device=c&amp;location=9007378&amp;gclid=Cj0KEQiA-ZSzBRDp3ITHm5KO_JYBEiQA1JjHHBfYU47KTm33FF6NpyHMK5AKiDPyZOsrjwDGiN2auPwaAocv8P8HAQ&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mod Podge<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Cork-board<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Sponge Brush<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.papersource.com\/item\/Soft-Grip-Knife\/2903_019\/47035802.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fiskars Soft Grip Craft Knife<\/a> or equivalent<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaels.com\/martha-stewart-crafts-cutting-mat-12-inches-by-12-inches\/M10420482.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Martha Stewart Crafts Cutting Mat<\/a> or equivalent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Steps<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Step 1:<span class=\"s1\">\u00a0Cut out 4 or more\u00a0pieces of 2&#8243; x 2&#8243; squares out of your corkboard with your craft knife on your cutting mat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-11-37-38-AM.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-18-33-PM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-560\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-18-33-PM.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Dec 07, 12 18 33 PM\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-18-33-PM.jpg 640w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-18-33-PM-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Step 2: Visit the Silhouette store and download a heart\u00a0design. Once you download your Silhouette or custom design, size it to 1.75\u00a0x 1.75\u00a0inches.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Step 4: Similar to what I did for last night&#8217;s craft on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/2015\/12\/07\/get-away-crafting-dec-5th-diy-glitter-reindeer-planner-clips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DIY planner clips<\/a>, cut two\u00a08 inch pieces of \u00a0Marquee Love Glitter washi tape. Take these pieces and place them on your chipboard about 2\u00a0inches from the top, directly under each other. This will become the base\u00a0part of your coaster that surrounds\/hugs your heart shape.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Step 5: Do the same thing for your heart shape. Place one piece of \u00a08&#8243; tape under the other two. This will be for your heart shape which should fit since the tape is 2 inches thick and your shape is 1.75&#8243; x 1.75&#8243;. Use\u00a0a different color from the base.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">(At this point you should have 3 rows &#8211; 2 of one color and 1 of the other.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-11-37-38-AM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-555\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-11-37-38-AM-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Dec 07, 11 37 38 AM\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-11-37-38-AM-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-11-37-38-AM-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Step 6:\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">Step 2: Open a new document in your Silhouette Studio\u00ae software.\u00a0Adjust your paper settings for 12 x 12 Silhouette chipboard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Step\u00a07: Place 4 2 x 2&#8243; squares about 1\/8 of an\u00a0inch from the top of your drawing area. Remember, you&#8217;re trying to\u00a0align your squares to\u00a0your first two rows of washi tape on your chipboard. Then place your single heart shape to be cut in the middle of your squares. The goal is to have heart punch-out in your squares. Then plac<\/span><span class=\"s1\">e 4 heart shapes in a row where the third row of what tape would be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/htgawc-DIY-Glitter-Washi-Coasters.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-561\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/htgawc-DIY-Glitter-Washi-Coasters-1024x541.png\" alt=\"htgawc DIY Glitter Washi Coasters\" width=\"720\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/htgawc-DIY-Glitter-Washi-Coasters-1024x541.png 1024w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/htgawc-DIY-Glitter-Washi-Coasters-300x158.png 300w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/htgawc-DIY-Glitter-Washi-Coasters.png 2008w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Step 8: \u00a0Send your chipboard\u00a0through your\u00a0Cameo with the ratchet blade\u00a0setting at 5 for the Silhouette brand chipboard.

Using some Mod\u00a0Podge, glue a square with the heart punch-out on a piece of your 2&#8243; x 2&#8243; cork-board. (You may need to trim this a bit.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-25-00-PM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-557\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-25-00-PM-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Dec 07, 12 25 00 PM\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-25-00-PM-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-25-00-PM-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Step\u00a010: Using some more Mod Podge, glue your heart shape into the punch-out. Then apply a think layer of Mod Podge to the entire coaster and wait to dry! (You may want to place your coasters under several heavy books to prevent curling.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-26-53-PM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-558\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-26-53-PM-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Dec 07, 12 26 53 PM\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-26-53-PM-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-07-12-26-53-PM-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">That&#8217;s it. I think that was pretty simple. You can do this with a ton of simple shapes. You can even glitter your chipboard on your own, I just like the Marquee Love washi tapes because they&#8217;re\u00a0easy to work with, there&#8217;s no real clean up and super sparkly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-08-1-09-25-AM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-562\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-08-1-09-25-AM-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Dec 08, 1 09 25 AM\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-08-1-09-25-AM-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.pinkimono.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Photo-Dec-08-1-09-25-AM-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Let me know how your coasters came out.
