The season of carnival has just started so if you are planning tohost some fabulous parties any sparkly, chic decorations might be useful.The ClayParty Coastersare a perfect addition to any Party decor or great hostess gift idea for your guests, so if you are loving this idea as much as I do, have a look how to create them to rockthe new year with style.

1. Form a ball out of the clay then flatten it out and roll it, to the thickness of about 0,5 cm.
2. Press the clay to the textural surface. It might sound strange to you but I love the row external wall of my studio and so I have used it as a texture for the coasters. I simply pressed the clay into it and got the pattern on them. You can get very creative here any other texture you like (i.e wool).
3. Once you got your pattern on the clay, use a bowl or a large cup with a sharp rim to cut your clay into a circle shape (it should be big enough to hold glass or mugs)
4. Follow the instructions on the packaging and bake your design accordingly or leave it for 24 h to dry.
5. When the coaster is thick, use sand paper to polish the sides of it and remove any unwanted bumps.
6. Paint the coaster on both sides with a white paint or spray paint.
7. Immediately after painting (when the paint is still a little bit wet and sticky) apply little pieces of shiny, gold leaf.
8. Leave the coasters for about 30 minutes to dry well.
9. The last step involved applying a coat of glaze to seal it and prevent damage while using.
Ta da!! Now you are ready to Party like there’s no tomorrow, enjoying your new drink coasters while the carnival lasts!
Happy New Year everyone!
