Pro Tips

Choose the right felt

Soft felt can get floppy, especially with larger coasters. Choose stiff or premium craft felt to keep your coasters sturdy and durable over time.

Tracing with chalk or disappearing ink

Instead of using regular pens or pencils, use tailor’s chalk or disappearing ink markers to trace your fruit shapes. This keeps your lines clean and avoids visible marks.

Applying the right amount of glue

To avoid messy glue marks, apply adhesive sparingly around the edges and center of each felt piece. Use a toothpick for precision if needed, and press each layer down firmly to avoid bumps or lifting edges.
