Scrabble Tile Coasters
Not my first scrabble craft but this one was a blast. Figuring out how to use fun items around your home to create something beautiful, like records on a wall, or wine corks into crafts. Scrabble tiles can be an inspiration and a way to show your creativity.
Creating the perfect scrabble craft is also a fun word game/puzzle. Figuring out the words, the placement and how you want it to look. This is also the perfect craft to involve the family in Have everyone create their own special coaster.
Four letter words related to wine and/or drinking, thinking up the words was easy enough. What I spent hours on was rearranging the words and letters to try and make words horizontal and vertical.. Not possibly folks, trust me I tried. To funny the coasters took a lot less time to make then trying to rearrange the words and letters/
I finally decided on:
1)Vino, Wine, Cask and Aged ,
2) Pint, beer, Hops, Brew
3) Salt, Lime, Iced and Stir and
4) Dine, Eat, Meal and food.
f you ever get an urge to create there are lots more words still to be used: Cork, Pour, Vine,Java, Teas, Soda, Diet, Fizz,Cola, Coke,… oh so many more possibilities.
What you will need
- Wood tiles for letters
- glue gun
- cork board/cardboard or a small coaster
How to make these fun Coasters
- I prearranged the tiles on small burlap coasters I already had on hand and for a moment thought about switching to 5 letter words to use the coaster as a base, but instead I used a hard cardboard I already had on hand. Some people use malleable cork board.
- Using hot glue, I attached the tiles to the cardboard.
- Once the tiles have set,
- trim the cardboard with a exacto knife,
- seal with modge podge
- and then obviously pour yourself a glass or two.
