So after making a few ashtrays, last night I found another use for cigar bands and decided I would give it a try today.

While at a friends house for a trip planning party, she had coasters that had wine labels on them. Long story short, they were a piece of tile with a wine label mod-podged on....then some type of surface sealer, some rubber feet and bingo....

Anyway, he is my shot at some new coasters for the bar....

Anyway, just killing a little time while the sealer hardens and figured I'd share....

It's Mod Podge (http://www.plaidonline.com/apmp.asp#Classic) you can buy it at any arts & craft store and even wal-mart in the crafts section.

The sealer can probably be found in the same places or possibly hardware stores.
