DIY Coaster Hack 2: Magazine coasters
Cut a magazine page into four strips. Fold the long edges of each strip inward toward the center, then fold the piece in half. Then, wrap the long strip around a skewer to create a coil, making sure to wrap it tightly. When you’re done, hot glue the end to seal the coil. Wrap and glue more strips of magazine paper around the coiled piece until your coaster reaches your desired size.
