Once you are happy with your design, select “Cut” from the menu and send it to your vinyl cutter. Load the adhesive vinyl roll onto the cutter and follow the instructions for cutting out your design.

Position your vinyl on top of your cork sheet or tile, making sure that it is centered. Gently press down on the vinyl to ensure that it adheres firmly.

Step 6: Remove Transfer Tape / Contact Paper

Once you have applied the vinyl, carefully remove the transfer tape or contact paper. This will leave behind just your customized cork coaster!
