How to make
Add a glue stick into your glue gun and heat up ready to use on the rope
Begin tightly swirling the rope around itself, using the glue gun to secure the rope in place as you work up to a coaster sized circle.
Place onto your hessian fabric and cut out a fabric circle the same size as your coaster, you can then attach this to back of your coaster to keep your spiral secure and rope flat.
For the Placemat you can repeat steps 1 and 2 but just make a larger circle shape.
You will also need to secure a backing piece of hessian onto the placemats to ensure that it sits flatly when dried.
