How to Make Elegant Embossed Coasters

coasters

In this tutorial I teach you how to create elegant ones embossed coasters. It seems complicated but you just need some stencil templates, which are very fashionable lately, and that will make all the work more complicated.

Materials

To do the embossed coasters you will need the following materials:

  • Wooden bases or any rigid material: they can be circular, square, hexagonal ...
  • Acrylic paint
  • Brush
  • Stencil templates
  • Relief paste, plaster, flashing, or any similar putty
  • Spatula
  • Glossy finish varnish
  • Adhesive velvet

Step by step

To do the embossed coasters first you need to prepare the base where you are going to create your coaster. To do this, paint it with acrylic paint the color you want. When the paint dries you can start creating the relieve.

In the next video-tutorial I show you the Step by Step so that you can create that relieve and all elaboration process of the coasters. Be patient, perhaps the first two times it will be difficult for you to perfectly mark the template, but if you follow the steps that I show you in the video and practice a little, you'll see how you get good finishes.

You have thousands of designs depending on the shape and size of the coasters, and of course, depending also on the stencil templates that you have chosen to mark the relief.

So that you don't forget any steps and you can make the embossed coasters yourself, let's briefly review the manufacturing process:

  1. Paint the top of the coaster with acrylic paint.
  2. Let the paint dry.
  3. Place the stencil on the coaster and press with your fingers so that it does not move.
  4. Apply the putty with the spatula and spread it on the coaster and the stencil template. Spread it like toast.
  5. Let the relief dry.
  6. Apply acrylic paint with your fingertips, gently dabbing it over the coaster.
  7. Let dry.
  8. Apply one or two coats of gloss finish varnish.
  9. Stick adhesive velvet on the base of the coaster so that it does not damage the surface where it will be placed.

And this has been the result.
