Love Bird Coasters

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, I wanted to share the “Love Bird” Coasters that I made for my boyfriend.

These were a Christmas gift for him, he is always such a great sport when I give him one of my creations.

These are made out of cut slices of our Christmas tree. I sanded them, and then sanded again, and again. I used a disc sander, I think I would have been sanding these until Valentine’s Day had I been doing it by hand.

When they were finally smooth and level, I used high gloss spray varnish to finish them. I painted tiny love birds on the back of one of them, because I kind of like this guy.
