DIY Slip-on Felt Coasters

These DIY Slip-on Felt Coasters double as wine tags and are a super simple and inexpensive way to save your tables and mark your wine glasses.  I’ve seen some cute felt coasters on Etsy lately, but they are about 30 dollars for a set of 4.  I’m sure they are hand-felted, but I can’t afford that.

I do love the look of the cut out felt these days, though.  And I love the idea of the coaster staying with the glass.  And I also love the fact that they double as a drink marker and wine tag.  So, I came up with a dollar store solution.

I made a set of 4 for 2 dollars!!

These felt coasters dress up a party.   Just slip them on the bottom of your stemware and they double as a wine tag.  Or place them under stemless glasses.

And they only take minutes to make.

What you need:

  • felt coasters (Dollar Tree. They come 4 per package, so one package makes 2 slip-on coasters)
  • hot glue and glue gun (on hand)

What you do:

  • Open your coasters and set two aside.   These are the bottoms.  
  • Take the remaining two coasters and cut out the very middle of them.   Remove middle.  Discard (or save for some other craft.  A barrette?  A wreath?)
  • Then cut three –  four slits from the middle opening to the edge, but not cutting all the way through the very edge.  These are the tops.
  • Get the bottom coasters that you set aside a minute ago.  Put a small dot of glue all around the bottom along the very edge.  
  • Line up your top coaster with your bottom coaster and press them together.
  • Slip on your wine glass.
  • Enjoy your party!  🙂   Or give them as a hostess gift with a bottle of wine!
