Crafty Wolverines

Pinterest is the best for fun unique gift ideas! My boyfriend is a HUGE Michigan Football fan,
 Go Wolverines!
I mean seriously...this is his room (clearly we do not live together)
Anyways...I saw a tutorial for homemade coasters and I thought..I can definitely tweak this awesome idea and tutorial and make it a great gift!
I followed the tutorial pretty much exactly, except when they just used pieces of scrapbook paper I created designs using scrapbook paper, construction paper, and an Xacto knife to cut. 


Felt on the bottom for protection!
Finished Product!!
I used A LOT of Mod Podge and Acrylic Sealer...but if I was doing it again, I would use a ton more. I mean, drinks are being set on these, so with condensation and spills you will need a lot of sealer and water resistant coating. 
But..he loved them!! And no one else will ever have these awesome Michigan coasters!!
