We have a thing for coasters, even though the ones we're using right now are the disposable, paper kind that we swiped from one of our favorite little bars. After having people over for drinks, it never fails that we find glass rings on our wood tabletops (this vision is the equivalent of nails on a chalkboard to us). So we're attempting to make a better effort of placing coasters sporadically for guests. For this, we'd like a mix-n-match set, which is where Robot Candy comes in.

These kitschy handmade coasters are made from recycled ceramic tile, with sweet, sometimes silly images like chipmunks and pink cake. They run $7 a pop, or four for $24.
