Coasters for Sale

These are SO BRIGHT!  I’m making coasters for an upcoming Christmas show that positively glow under black light.  Pretty much loving these.  I’m not planning on posting them on my website as I think they’ll pretty much all sell at the Mistletoe Market in December.  If you’re positively in love with any let me know and I’ll set them aside for you.  Are there any that are your runaway favorites?

I like this one... it looks a little froggy to me.


This one looks like you could literally reach into it.




Maybe my favorite with all those lovely colors...


Really cool in a butterfly wing kind of way.


Well, what can I say about these awesome colors?  LOVE!

This one looks like a gentle flowing waterfall to me.




Anyway, if there’s anything you love, let me know at colorcatstudios@gmail.com and I’ll set it aside for you.  My plan is to give them all a glossy resin top. :) ❤️

Art Coasters for Christmas

I decided that I’d make florescent coasters that glow under black light to sell at the Mistletoe Market at the Conroe Convention Center December 7 (mark your calendars, people!). It turned out that this paint is EXTREMELY difficult to handle but I’m slowly getting the hang of it.  I decided to go with the paint’s strengths and have been working on marbling like they did in Florence on their papers.  I started slow but am really loving the way they’re turning out now.  Here’s one. 🙂


If you are absolutely in love with anything I post let me know!  They’re $15.00 each and I could never duplicate one - each is its own original work of art. 🙂

Second Group of Art Coasters for Sale

I have been seriously busy adding work to my website every day getting ready for fall markets and shows.  That being said, if you like any of these, grab them now!


Gorgeous, huh?  I’m curious which one you like best.  Details to make them yours are on my website, www.colorcatstudios101.etsy.com.

Now that I have them photographed, I’m going to flood them with super-glossy protective resin and give them nice cork backs. 🙂. If you want them, now is the time because I am not going to be making more!  



I like this one... it looks octopussy.



As far as the black and gold coasters, I made only eight and just posted the other four in my previous post.  When I asked if people wanted to see that they were recycled I got a resounding yes, so you my find little chipped pieces or a bit of grout I left on one.  Picture me digging through piles of discarded builders’ junk, scraping and scrubbing and you’ll get the picture.  Anyway, once these are gone, they are GONE! 

Oh my goodness, I love these!

You would notice this following one has a little chip out of its corner.  Picture me digging through bins of discarded builders’ junk, chipping grout off tiles, scrubbing them and you’ll get the idea.  I asked if people wanted to be reminded that these are recycled and got a resounding ‘YES!’  So, I used some with tiny chips, left a little grout, and we will celebrate recycling and helping this ol’ world.  That being said, I think these little stunners don’t lose anything but actually gain personality with these little blemishes.







Whew!  Pretty all over the place!

Paint Pouring Coasters

Here I made a set of matching coasters and oh, do I love them! 

Because I’m recycling tiles, I decided to leave some of the grout from their previous life on them to give a nod to their past, acknowledging that we need to recycle.  I’m curious what you think of this or would you rather have a perfect edge?  I think of the Amish and how they purposefully put one piece of a quilt in upside down or just ‘wrong.’ Their aim was to point out that the only One who could do anything perfectly is God.  

I really like that one.  Here they are all together; notice the rough edges.  I rather like it.

The color combination is downright carnival-cheery if you ask me.  Hey!  Carnival!  Let it be known these are my carnival coasters!
Honestly, are they too pretty for coasters?  Maybe I should just put hangars on the back.  Doesn’t everyone need tiny four inch art hanging in tiny corners?

Anyway, they’ll be up on my site soon for sale if you don’t grab them first! Do you like the color combo?
