DIY

DIY? Of course you can! Do it yourself projects are sometimes the best kind of projects, because they were made from your own hands&your own creativity. I personally love DIY projets of all kinds, decor, gifts, or just fun nick nacks. But i have to be honest, when i first found out we were given a DIY assignment, i was a little worried. Not because DIY projects are a lot to handle, but just because i didn't have a lot of time on my hands. BUT HAVE NO FEAR! After i looked into some DIY projects, i realized not all have to be time consuming. There were tons of projects that could easily be done in no matter of time whatsoever. And so, with that idea&the little time i had to finish, i decide to DIY...


COASTERS!

The DIY project is totally SIMPLE.  All  you need is: an old pair of denim jeans, scissors, a regular sized cup, a pen, and a washing machine.


Step 1: Start off by finding a pair of old denim, works best with a well worn pair.


Step 2: Find a regular sized cup and trace the bottom of it with a pen.  Don't trace the bottom of the cup directly because you want the coaster to be a little bigger than the actual cup.  Trace about an extra inch wide.

Step 3: Cut out the traced coaster by following along the lines.


What your jeans and the coasters should look like post cutting.


Step 4: Throw your coasters into the washing maching for a quick scrub, just to get them a little fluffier&a little more delightful.


Step 5: Finally, place your coaters around your kitchen table (or anywhere else you may need them), grab some drinks, and VOILA!


This DIY project takes litterally 15 minutes to do! SO?  What are you waiting for?  YOU TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!
