Christmas Coasters

Shanna and I decided to join forces this year and make our neighbor gifts together. We had an idea in mind and spent an entire night going from store to store trying to find the necessary supplies. We could not find what we needed for the price we needed. So we had to come up with plan B. We decided to make Christmas coasters. Here is what we did:
-Bought tiles from Home Depot
-Bought cute Christmas paper from Michaels
-We used my Cricut to cut out the images and sayings we wanted
-We Mod Podged the images and sayings on the tiles
-We Mod Podged over the tiles, twice
-We spray painted an acrylic water-proof sealer over the tiles, THREE times
-We regretfully did this in my storage room and stunk up the ENTIRE house
-We tied the tiles together with pretty ribbon from Michael's and added a tag and candycanes
We hope our neighbors enjoy!

Here's the final product. We gave 4 coasters to each family.

Here's the 4 different coasters individually:
