These are beautiful! I can't wait to give it a try. I notice some people spray with a sealer and some don't. Does the image stay nice without a spray? I would think that if I don't spray it will be better to absorb glass sweat.Not sure what I should do but looking at how nice your coasters turned out I really have to give it a try.Thanks so much for your idea.
After making the coasters, I tested them to see how they would work without spray, if the ink would come off. I found that if you scrub them (like with the scrubby-part of a sponge), the craft ink will lighten, but the Stazon will not change. However, simply wiping them with a damp cloth is fine for the ink. For me, I decided to take the chance because I wanted to absorbency of the un-sprayed tile. (I didn't think that they would get too dirty where they would need that scrubbing.)
