Glass edge stone coasters will add a love inspired detail to any table top!
As I was browsing the isles of Michael’s one day, I came across this bag of beauty. It was my new favorite color and had a mirrored backside- perfect. Buy now, figure out what to make later (ever feel that way?).
As I was sorting through my craft closet I came across these loose tiles. I loved the idea of combining the stone with visible character and the modern vase filler!
Let’s gather everything you need:
- Stone tiles
- Vase filler
- Clear glue
- (Optional) Matching paint to add details on top
Step 1
Lay out your beads on a paper plate. Grab your glue and apply it to one side of your square tile. Usually you hear less is more, but for this project I would use a good amount. It’s then easier to manipulate the tiny glass pieces when you know it’s secure.
Step 2
Now you will roll your tile (with the glue side down) through the stones on the plate. Use this opportunity to fiddle with the glass while the glue is wet. I did two sides at a time, then waited a little bit for it to harden- making it easier to work with the last two. Repeat this step for each side of your tiles. Each one will look slightly different but similar.
**Note- look at each edge after rolling to ensure nothing is blocking the tile from laying flat. Sometimes there can be a few stragglers hanging over the edge.
Step 3
Lastly, seal and soften! A coat of mod podge will seal it all up. Softening refers to adding something on the bottom. This could be felt, or cork- whichever floats your boat.
Those are really pretty. I love this idea. So glad you share with us at Merry Monday.
Thanks 😉
What a great idea and perfect for holiday gift ideas. Featuring when my link party opens up tonight!
Yes they would make nice gifts, maybe a set of 4. They even have different shades of blue. Thank you for the feature, I really appreciate it 🙂
These are so pretty. Just adding that little accent gives it such a pretty elegant look! Love it!

Those are gorgeous! I have some tumbled tiles left over from my stamped coaster project, and I’ve been wondering what to do with them. This is perfect. #HomeMattersParty
