Instructions for Making Sunflower Coasters

Cutting the Base

Selecting a material for the base of the sunflower coaster is very important. You can use craft foam sheet or felt fabric for the base, we’re using craft foam sheet. Also, keep in mind to use yellow coloured material for the base (for a neater finished look). Determine the size of the coaster and cut out a round shape from the craft foam sheet or felt fabric 2 cm smaller than the determined size. 

Creating the Twine Layer

Grab a natural jute twine and start to attach the twine on the base material from the centre of the base. Continue to attach the twine adjacently by forming a coil towards the outer edge of the base. This will basically be the centre of the sunflower coaster. Keep increasing the size until you’re happy with the pattern. Use hot-glue gun to attach the twine to the base material. 

Starting the Border (Petals)

Done crafting the centre part of the coaster? Grab a strand of brown yarn and add a border around the previous twine attached to the base. Take the yellow yarn and create a small loop and attach the open ends with the base twine. Consider each loop as a petal of the sunflower coaster. Oh, use hot glue to attach the yarn as well. 

Sunflower Petal Border

Keep creating loops and attaching them to the base twine border until the entire border is filled.
