Apple Print Coasters
"Making Apple Print Coasters is a fun craft to do with kids after visiting an apple farm. Kids will enjoy seeing the “star” on the inside of the apple, then stamping it onto a cork coaster to use as an ornament, gift, or coaster for home. This craft requires basic supplies and can be done at home, school, or daycare. To make apple print coasters you need: cork coasters, red acrylic paint, a paint brush, a small apple, a knife, string or ribbon, and scissors. "
