    The numbered corkboard coasters are pretty sweet!

    I would love for you to check out the coasters I made as a Christmas gift last year:

    They are lovely, especially the maple leaf variety. I am very proud of my sister who screenprints wooden coasters. For a look go to http://www.velvetmossnz.blogspot.com I think they are pretty unique.

    Is it bad that coasters kinda make me laugh? I tend to punch a hole in mine and wear them as pendants. Works for me!!! x

    ohhhh I like those stitched ones. I am kind of obsessed with stitching/embroidery right now, and those are not helping!
