Materials you need
Blank Coasters (available at Staples / Hobby Ideas stores) ; Acrylic art paints ; brushes (flat brush size 4; soft round brushes - size 2 , size 000) ; pencil (white pencil), Liquid Glass; rag cloth; carbon paper (if needed)
How to ?
First, paint the coaster on all sides. I have colored mine green. Give two or three coats of paint to give it a clean finish.
Now draw out a design on the painted surface. I have created my psychedelic design using a white pencil. You can also use a carbon paper to transfer your design on to the coaster.
Choose your colors, and start filling them into your design. I have used really bright colors, to give it the psychedelic effect.
Give 2 coats, once dry, use a fine tipped (000) brush to make the outlines on your design, as needed.
Let it dry for a day.
Now mix the Liquid Glass solution (mix equal proportions of the epoxy resin solutions). Pour on the dried coaster and spread it using a brush OR take small quantities using a brush and spread it evenly (without bubbles)
Keep this under cover (in a box / under an inverted bowl) for a day or two - till fully dry.
Pronto ! Your coaster is ready to use !
Create similar patterns on the other coasters and make a set of 4 or 6 coasters !!
