These tiles can be used as coasters or trivets, depending on how they are sealed. They can also be framed or you can place them on a small easel and used as home decor. Also, painting on tile is great for a beginner because you can easily wipe it completely clean and start again. Great for practice.

I was reading your instructions about to covert the tiles onto coasters, I don't like the idea of using RESIN (and I respect people using it, I am scared because of the fumes ,.etc) and don't misunderstand me; the finish is beautiful but I just have my reservations. If anything you have other than that please let us know, and people can takevutcfrom there. Thanks in advance.

Hi! It will scratch or rub off if not sealed. *Krylon Kamar Varnish - amzn.to/2NLePpV​ - *Krylon Kamar UV Resistant Clear Gloss - amzn.to/30FeRVr. These are the 2 products I use to seal them. I usually apply multiple light coats of the varnish first, making sure to allow enough drying time between each and that the art is completely covered because the UV protection contains alcohol and can reactivate the ink if you didnt completely cover with the varnish. I use 2 coats of the UV protection. Once this is all completed, you can use resin of your choice if you would like to use as a coaster or if you just want the smooth shine of resin (my personal preference).

What do you seal your project with?
