Recently while shopping I came across a set of marble coasters. It was a set of four for around $24. Being the cheapie that I am I didn’t buy them but it reminded me that I had some marble tiles left over from a past DIY and I decided to try my hand at making some coasters myself. And you know what? It could not be easier and to make these hexagon marble coasters! All you need are some marble tiles and gold vinyl. These marble coasters are a chinch to make and are a perfect wedding favor or housewarming gift. Read on below to learn how to make these DIY hexagon marble coasters.

Supplies: Marble Tiles | Gold Vinyl | Felt Furniture Rounds | Transfer Tape | Cutting Mat | Cricut Machine
First remove your marble tiles from the mesh backing and wipe each tile with a damp cloth. The tiles will have a bit of dust on them and if left will create bubbles under the vinyl. Next, using sandpaper gently sand the edges of your tiles to remove any residue glue.
Next use your Cricut Machine to cut out our design space file onto gold vinyl. Click Here to go straight to the file I created for this project. This is the perfect size for 4″ hexagon marble tiles.
Peel the negative space away from your hexagon shape.
Place transfer tape over your gold vinyl and use the scraper to re-enforce the design on to your transfer tape.
Place the vinyl over a marble tile and smooth on using the scraper tool. Carefully remove the transfer tape to reveal your coaster design!
Finish your marble coasters by adding felt furniture rounds to the bottom corners. These felt rounds will keep your coaster from scratching any surfaces.
Your marble hexagon coasters are now complete and ready to be used or gifted!

Super cute idea! Do you have any ideas for those of us that don’t have a Cricut machine? Are there cut outs we could use?
Hi Rebekah! Thank you. I would recommend buying these (click here) if you don’t have a Cricut. They are made out of vinyl and appear to be the correct size.
