Choosing a Drink Coaster For Your Home By Sarah Martin

When choosing a drink coaster you might want to choose a designer one that somehow suits your décor or the occasion you are celebrating.

If you are throwing an event and want designs that are very neutral then consider images of fruit. These are coasters with photographs and paintings of lemons, apples, strawberries, and even pomegranates.

Another neutral drink coaster motif is that of vehicles. You can get a drink coaster set with pictures of antique cars, model T type cars and modern race cars. You can also get ones with pictures of fire trucks. Fishing boats, sailing vessels and old fashioned pirate ships are also popular motifs on drink coaster. A drink coaster with a picture of an antique bicycle or tricycle on it is quite elegant.

For a more natural take on the drink coaster (http://www.thirstycoasters.com/servlet/-strse-Themed-Gift-Sets/Categories) consider an image like the seashell which is universal, beautiful and part of Mother Nature’s.

You can get a drink coaster set that has many different types of seashells all in one set. Beach scenes and images of waves crashing against the sands and rocks are also popular drink coaster images as are pictures of ocean washed pebbles or river pebbles.

Animals are also a very common image to be found on coasters. It is hard to go wrong with a picture of a horse, cat or puppy. You can also get famous animal cartoon coasters that feature such popular animated creations as Snoopy, Garfield. Tweety and Bugs Bunny.

When it comes to animation every cartoon character ever invented can also be had because the big film companies consider them to be promotional tools. Sometimes they even give this type of thing out for free at the movies.

However Disney has made the cartoon drink coaster a very sought after thing and you will find all kinds of different variations of it online including ones that have images of the most popular female cartoon characters like Cinderella, Pocahantas and Snow White. You can also find coasters with male characters from the world of Disney on them such as Shrek, Prince Charming and Aladdin.

Abstract drink coasters (http://www.thirstycoasters.com/servlet/-strse-Name-Drops/Categories) are also quite common and you can’t go wrong choosing them. You can get them in all kinds of patterns and colors. Just about every color to match every type of décor. You can get Mandalay, star shapes, kaladeiscope patterns, polka dots, string shapes. You name it, it is probably available as a coaster pattern.

If you are having a party of some kind you can usually get a drink coaster that suits your theme. For instance if you are throwing a bachelor party it is quite easy to get one that suits the occasion and that perhaps has something like pictures of sexy women on them.

When looking for the right drink coaster try and find a brand that is durable enough that you can just pop it in the dishwasher. This is best for keeping your drink coaster free of bacteria. The porcelain glass and plastic ones are best for this.
