How to make the terrazzo style coasters:
Terrazzo effect:
Mix some raisin with water in a rubber cup to a creamy mass. Colour the mixture with VBS colour concentrate or craft paint as desired. Then spread the mixture thinly on a craft mat and let it dry. After approx. 30 minutes, you can break the solidified raisin mass into small pieces and put them into a plastic box. These are perfect for storing the individual colour chips. If you want to use different colours, repeat the above process for each colour.
Mix Raysin with water again. Add the small colour chips to the mixture and mix well. Pour the mixture into the desired mould and leave to harden for about an hour.
When dry, remove the castings from the mould and sand the surface of the casting until the terrazzo effect is visible.
For the two-colour terrazzo effect, mix two masses. One mass with colour chips and one mass with coloured chips. Pour both into the mould at the same time.
For a single-coloured moulding, colour the mixed mass with VBS colour concentrate or craft paint and stir well.
Marbling effect:
Mix Raysin with water in a rubber cup to a creamy mixture. Add a little VBS colour concentrate or craft colour. Important: Hardly stir at all. The less the colour is stirred in the mass, the greater the marbling effect.
Decorations:
To give as a gift, simply cut or punch a banderole or tag out of kraft paper, label it and attach it to the casting.
