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.

You probably get this all the time but - these crafty round-ups are one of my very favorite features that you do!

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
