Drink Coasters vs. Beer Mats

type=beer-matCoasters today are typically made in whole, or in part of cork or sandstone or lined on the bottom with cork. Their purpose is to prevent damage to the tabletop from the moisture or heat from the glass or mug.

Beer mats, on the other hand, tend to be made of rubber, and are used under beer bottles, or steins of beer. At one time, they were typically made made of layers of paper fiber, and many still are. Beer mats commonly have advertising imprinted on them.

In common usage, however, many people make little distinction between the two.

Nautical Tiles and Trivets

Tiles and Trivets

type=Deck-Level-View-TileTiles ana trivets have several uses. Used as art or decorator touches, they can be framed and hung; they are inlaid into the tops of wooden boxes and even tables, and also used as coasters and kitchen spoon rests.

Nautical themed tiles and trivets, or tiles with ships and scenes from the sea make wonderful little decorator touches throughout the house. Coastal scenes are extremely popular, too.

Tiles and trivets, along with coasters make excellent thank you or hostess gifts.

Deck Level View Tile


I have a favorite tile by my bedside for my evening drink. I've placed little round felt 'feet' it (like miniatures of the felt pads used on some furniture legs) to protect the nightstand surface.

    Love this stuff! Living in Florida, I decorated my former house in this theme. Now, I rescued a few of the decorative nautical theme items for my new abode. Love the Thirstystone Nautical Patchwork Coaster Set!

    I love that oceanic spiral tile. Also like the nautical chart coasters. A nautical theme is always a true favorite of mine. I am really missing my beach home. Guess for now I have to live the nautical life vicariously through your lenses. Thanks for keeping me in touch with my love of the ocean. :-)
