Magazine coasters

Magazine Coasters

Ingredients needed: 

-          Couple books of old magazine

-          Scissors

-          Rubber cement

-          Paper clip

-          Spray acrylic (not pictured)

STEPS 1:

First of all, fold one pages of the old magazine into 4-5 folds. All in a standard size so that the coaster will be flat enough.

STEPS 2:

Spread glue along the edge and fold over one last time. Cut along the edge until you have a thin strip. Create about 30 strips before you begin the rolling process.

STEPS 3:

For the first strip, (the center of the coaster) apply glue all along one side of the strip. Then open up a paperclip and roll the strip around the paperclip with your fingers. Using the paperclip will allow the center to be tight and circular.

STEPS 4:

For the following strips, apply glue on the edge of it and stick with the coming strips. Keep wrapping strips around the coaster until it is as wide as you wish it to be.

STEPS 5:

Once the coaster get as wide as you wish, let it dry. Lighten up the coaster with your color or you may draw on it as well. And  finally spray acyclic on it.
