Lets Make a Mess

Fabric Scrap Coasters (Craft Stash Bash #11 – Handmade by Stacy Vaughn)

June 20, 2012 by Rachel 7 Comments

Welcome Stacy from Handmade by Stacy Vaughn!

Hello! I’m Stacy from Handmade by Stacy Vaughn. I am so excited to be posting in the Craft Stash Bash here at Lines Across! Thank you Rachel for the opportunity!
One thing you should know about me is that I am kind of a fabric hoarder. I love buying fabric and I have a huge stash that needs to be used up. I also save my scraps. Even the little tiny scraps that probably couldn’t be used. But I can’t just throw them away! So I have boxes of fabric scraps. What should be done with them????
How about some fabric scrap coasters?

Ready to use up some scraps?
Lets get started!
Gather your supplies…

Cut your scraps in strips so they are easier to work with. You will be wrapping the fabric around the rope and then coiling the rope into a circle to make the coaster.
Start at one end of the rope. Using glue wrap a piece of fabric around the end…

Add more fabric by gluing and wrapping.

Start to form the coaster by gluing the end and coiling…

Add more fabric and coil until you reach your desired size.

You can even use your tiniest scraps…

Once you have it to the size you want, finish the end by wrapping fabric around the end just like you did in the beginning…

Finish covering any remaining rope.

Glue the end down.

You now have a scrappy coaster!
Repeat to make a set!

Fabric scrap strips also make a fun ribbon for packaging!

Customize to fit your color scheme and style.

Makes and easy, inexpensive gift!

Make them as small or as big as you like.

Try using ribbon scraps too!

Protect your coffee table with style. 🙂

 

Thanks Rachel for having me!
Happy crafting everyone!
