Family Drink Tray - Problem Solved

 by danlynne07
Contest WinnerFeatured
Thanks to this "FUN"CTIONAL and easy project,I  no longer have tons of cups all over the house. You can choose your color scheme and pattern. Or you can make a different coaster for each person in your family.I just love the handle and the fact that you can create your own look. You can even keep changing the look, the tiles are only 16 cents each. Why not make them for every holiday or birthday.They would be great party favors. Make yours and share it here.

If you have a son who loves spiderman, you could print a picture off the internet or maybe you have some wrapping paper.Use your imagination and have fun.




UPDATE
I added one extra step to put pics from any other instructable members who want to show off their own coaster trays. Please post a pic in the comment section if you want me to put yours on here.

Step 1: What you will need

Modge Podge(*or you can make your own) =1 part elmers white glue /1 part water
paint in the color of your choice
scrapbooking paper in the pattern of your choice
foam paint brush
4 inch ceramic tiles from home improvement store
a piece of wood long enough to fit all of the tiles you want
2 drawer pulls
clear coat spray
dowel caps for legs (optional)
letter stickers (optional)

* I think that Modge Podge will last a little longer and it does dry quicker.

you are very welcome. this is actualy the first time i used modge podge. i love it,it just opened a whole new world of fun things to personalize. in fact i used it on the 'Mommy loves kisses' sign instead of going out and buying stickers on this other instructable.(link below)
