When you are using your coaster with your hot or cold drink, you can use the macramé holder to display your favorite photo in! This piece is not only multifunctional, you could display it anywhere you need a splash of color. The pretty, deep cobalt blue contrasts nicely with the green orange and yellow colors of the tile.
