Why not make custom coasters?
Below are three I made for Oakleigh, Danise and Dwight last year for Christmas.
They start like this....
And, end up like this.....
Wrapped and ready to go...
Should they get dirty, they are completely washable...
I used prequilted fabric on top and
clear vinyl for the bottom to keep the glass from sweating onto furniture.

@ Sassy Sites!
The prequilted fabric seems to give stability. They do not look as floppy as ones I have made.
