How To Make Confetti Tile Coasters
Make confetti tile coasters for your next party or just for everyday. I use mine for everyday because they make me smile. The coasters are so pretty with the bold colorful confetti.
Colorful Confetti Tile Coasters
The coasters are inexpensive to make and take no time at all, less than 30 minutes (allowing for drying time). And……..you just have to smile when you look at them.
You guys know those bright little dots have my name all over them. Bold colors are right up there with chocolate on my list of favorite things. Now to get to the project details.
How To Make Confetti Tile Coasters
Supplies for the Confetti Tile Coasters project:
Confetti from Hobby Lobby (50% off coupon)
4 Ceramic Tiles from the local home improvement store
Cork or sticky cushion pads
Mod Podge – Hard Coat and Gloss Formulas
Mod Podge Brush
Step 1. Apply Hard Coat Mod Podge to the ceramic tile.
The Mod Podge brush is perfect for this step. The short bristles make applying the Mod Podge super easy.
Step 2. Sprinkle confetti onto the tiles.
Grab a handful of confetti and sprinkle it on the tiles all willy-nilly. I left some of the confetti in layers just as it fell and some I spread out. The larger dots of confetti I laid on the coasters and worked around them with the smaller dots.
Step 3. Apply Hard Coat Mod Podge over the confetti.
Once the layer of confetti and Mod Podge is dry, coat the tile with several layers of Hard Coat Mod Podge allowing for drying time in between layers.
Step 4. Apply a layer of Gloss Mod Podge
You guys know I like the shiny stuff. I applied one layer of Gloss Mod Podge as the finishing touch. The confetti was shiny to start with but a little extra shine is always nice.
Step 5. Add table protector pads
Now we need to add something to the bottom of the tiles to protect the table. I had a roll of cork in my stash so that’s what I used for the coaster pads. I cut a small square of cork for each corner and glued them on using regular glue. Pre-cut adhesive pads would work great too.

Look at all that sparkle and shine.
Brings a big smile to my face. This little set is a Christmas Gift.
Now I need to make a set for me. I ran out of tiles. Shopping time. (update….I made a set just for me)
I love the confetti so much I used it on a piece of furniture here……You’ll Never Believe What I Did With Confetti.
These coasters make great gifts and they won’t break the bank either. Your friends would love a set of coasters ( insert Kathy smiley face).

The table protector pads are a great idea. I’d like to give a couple of sets of these colorful coasters as hostess gifts. Merry Christmas!
ShootingStarsMag says
These are so cute! I’ve made coasters with photos and napkins before, but I really like this idea as well. I’ll have to keep it in mind. It would make a fun Birthday gift too.
Florence @ VintageSouthernPicks says
Kathy, those are so pretty and cheerful! I love that you can use any color tile too, although white looks great with the little dots, which remind me of Tiddly Winks. It looks like an easy project. I would be delighted to receive a set of these as a gift, so I’m sure the recipient of yours will be pleased.

Thank you Shirley. You know I love the bright colors!
Debra Wood says
I love your confetti coasters, but was wondering does they confetti not move when you apply the mode podge? Thanks.
Kathy Owen says
Not really. Some of the pieces might move a bit but the Mod Podge does a good job of holding them in place. Put a layer of Mod Podge on the tiles before putting the confetti on.
Andy says

Kathy Owen says
I’m not sure Andy. I bought them at Hobby Lobby.
