Gift-Wrap Coasters How-To
1. Cut out a piece of paper slightly larger than the glass square. You can use any type of wrapping paper, or nice-looking kraft paper.

2. Apply Mod Podge solution with sponge brush lightly to one side of the glass -- brushing from the center out.

3. Place your paper face down onto the glued side. Smooth paper to glued side with bone folder -- make sure to remove all air bubbles.

4. Let stand until it's completely dry. If you mess up on the glue or paper, don't fret -- just wipe off the glue and start over.

5. Trim off excess paper with a utility knife.

6. Peel off adhesive side to cork square, and attach to papered side of glass. Trim excess cork with a utility knife.

7. Tie four coasters together with decorative ribbon, and add a recipe card for Martha's Famous Eggnog.
