Craft Day - Lace Coasters

Our next project for Craft Day was lace spray painted coasters.
For these coasters, here's what you need:
4.25" square white coasters - I got mine at Lowe's for a whopping 10 cents/tile!
Lace - scrap lace or ribbon - I found lace ribbon at Hobby Lobby
Spray adhesive
Spray paint
Clear Acrylic Gloss Coating (waterproof spray varnish)
Adhesive felt circles for "feet" on the coasters

Take your lace and cut it a little longer than the coaster.  Spray the lace with spray adhesive, and then press down on your coaster.  In steady sweeping motion, spray paint over entire coaster.  You can pull the lace off immediately, and it will reveal an amazing lace pattern.
Voila!
Here was our project in motion...
Once dry, you can spray Acrylic Spray Gloss on top
to seal the paint and make sure it doesn't chip off.
Then put small felt adhesive circles on the bottom side
of the tile in each corner as "feet" for the coaster.
And you're done!
