Hand me a stack of colorful felt and my mind instantly starts dreaming up one million creative ideas! I think felt is one of the easiest and most forgiving of all craft supplies. So when we were challenged to use the Gigantic Fantastic Felt Sheets that come in ten different colors, I was thrilled. Today I am sharing how to create Geometric Felt Party Coasters, perfect for your next holiday gathering or simply using around the home!
Layout all the sizes of your felt and start playing around with the color combinations that you will be creating. I choose to cut some of my smaller squares on the diagonal, as triangles for a varied pattern.
Once your felt pattern is decided upon, it is time to glue the felt together. I laid each square out and made sure all the pieces matched up. Then, lifting a corner at a time, I applied fabric fusion to the smaller squares and then laid them back down on the felt coaster pieces. Follow the directions for dry time.
After the felt has adequately dried, it’s time to get your party setup and started! I love mixing and matching my glassware during a party. It’s an unexpected surprise of color, shape and size. I used tall and elegant Cylinder Champagne Flutes next to Red Patterned Wine Glasses.
And because no party, is really a party without a little metallic shimmer, I also incorporated gold rimmed cups. The tiny Pedestal Clear Cups were absolutely perfect for holding small little munchies, like white chocolate chips – yum!
