This trivet DIY is a great Kids craft

One fun way to do that is to turn it into a simple trivet - to place cold and hot items on, like your daily cup of joe Take your work of art and cut to the size of a thick piece of tile. Next take a square of cork and cut that also to the size of the tile. Brush on Mod Podge to stick the cork to the tile and brush on more Mod Podge to attach your art work to the other side of the tile.
