Directions
- Start by sourcing or crafting your own wooden rounds, making sure they are thick enough for your project and sanded smooth to prevent any rough edges.
- Select your preferred decoration technique, whether that involves applying paint, positioning stencils or adhesive decals, or using a wood-burning tool to craft spooky motifs such as felines, jack-o'-lanterns, or phantoms.
- If you are creating hanging decorations, apply a protective sealant over your artwork and attach a loop of string or cord for display.
- To transform the slices into functional coasters, pour a layer of clear resin over the completed designs to ensure they are sturdy and long-lasting.
- For larger decorative displays, seal your finished pieces to lock in the details and mount them on a wall or arrange them in a gallery-style setup.
