Barbeque Place Mats

How to Make

1. Brush glue all over coaster. Apply plenty as cork will absorb it.
2. Starting from outer edge, coil twine around the coaster working it in. Ensure it sticks down well as you move around and that it touches the previous row (to avoid gapping,) as you start a new one.
3. Give a gentle press down when finished coiling to ensure all rows stick down well. Repeat 2 & 3 for the remaining coasters.
4. Cut a circle in corrugated card 21cms in diameter, this will become your base.
5. Using this as template draw around and cut 2 circles in felt.
6. Stick down the felt on either side of the card circle, one at a time, allowing drying before putting on other side.
7. Start by placing a twined coaster centrally on your circle base, then the others around. Make sure they are all touching and evenly placed. Once you’re happy with your layout, stick down (with glue) one by one.
