Materials You Will Need

The links below are Amazon and other affiliate links. I earn from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.

  • Resin
  • When deciding on which resin to use for your coasters, you need to keep in mind whether you want it just for cold cups or for hot ones as well.
  • If only for cold drinks, you can be flexible and use whatever brand you like:
  • If you want it to work for both hot and cold drinks, you need to look for a heat-resistant resin, like these:
    • FX Poxy ~ According to the manufacturer, this one is heat resistant to 500° F.
    • Stone Coat

Snowman Craft Directions

Step 1

Mix two ounces of resin, pour it into the coaster mold, and let it cure. The Fast Cast cures fast and white. If you want to use regular resin, you will want to add a white pigment to the resin before pouring it.

Step 2

When cured, remove the coasters from the mold. And now it’s time to take the white discs and turn them into a fun snowman craft.

To do that, paint a snowman face onto the resin coasters.

*I added some rosy cheeks and dabbed the paint with a paper towel to lighten it up.

Step 3

Paint clear drying glue onto the features and around the outer edge of the snowman craft and pour on chunky white glitter.

Step 4

Once everything has dried, pour one ounce of clear resin over each of the coasters. This will seal in the paint and the glitter.

Step 5

Spread the resin to the edges and pop the bubbles with a lighter.

Step 6

Once cured, trace around the coaster and use it as a template to draw the cap.

Step 7

Cut out the cap template and then trace around it onto felt and cut it out. You want to do that twice.

Step 8

I glued the two pieces together, so there is a front and back to the cap.

Cut a strip of red and glue it on as trim on the snowman cap. Also, glue on a pom pom on the end of the cap.
