those are very cute, and seem very simple to do. i have some similar placemats that i got from a japanese dollar store, and wanted to make some in a different color…my way would have been more difficult!

Yeah coasters are there too (not that I can read any Japanese unfortunately). My obsession with Japanese design and style is pushing me towards going and learning.
Thanks Jhoanna for the tut,
Mia

Oh, this is great gift idea too! Thanks for sharing! By the way, I have just posted up a tutorial for a Notebook & Pencil Holder on my blog – it can also be made in one hour and is a good gift idea for Christmas . Link is: How to Make a Notebook-&-Pencil Holder

Thanks for the tutorial, those look great! I can read just enough Japanese to see that it also looks as though you can make matching coasters.
