Here’s what you will need:
- Cork Sheet
- Acrylic Paint
- Red Marker
- Paint Brushes
- Water Cup
- Cutting Mat
- Craft Knife
- Heart Stencil
First utilize a heart-shaped stencil to follow a heart onto your cork sheet and use your craft knife to cut the shape out. Next, mix white paint with another colour (conversation hearts come in white, orange, purple, pink, yellow, and green) to get that classic pastel colour of the candies. Use a paint brush to paint both the borders and one side of the cork center, then let the paint dry thoroughly. Once dry, use a red marker to compose a frequent conversation heart term like”Hug Me”,”Be Mine”, or”Lets Kiss”. That is it! Don’t forget to watch our step-by-step video for more visual instructions and please, let us know your coasters turn out! Happy Valentine’s Day!
