In a TikTok clip uploaded yesterday , she demonstrated how simple it is to upcycle unwanted tiles instead of dumping them and adding to our planet's waste problem.While you can do so yourself, Vernice shared that she managed to get her tiler to chop up her tiles to her desired size. Once the tile edges are done, take your square-shaped tile and superglue one side of it to a sheet of foam paper.Of course, you can always let your imagination run wild and decorate your coaster to add a personalised touch to them.

Vernice added that her upcycled coasters are a "great gift" for friends and family. She gave them out as housewarming party favours and her guests got to "bring back a piece of [your] home".
