Best Drink Coasters for Protecting Surfaces?

Hey everyone,

I’m in the market for some good drink coasters that not only protect surfaces but also look stylish. I’ve seen a few options, but I’m wondering which materials work best for preventing water rings and scratches. Do you recommend cork, wood, stone, or maybe silicone?

I’d love something functional but also adds a nice touch to the decor. Any brands or specific coasters you swear by? Also, do any of you have coasters that are heat-resistant for hot drinks?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Hey!

For a stylish and functional option, I’d recommend cork or silicone coasters. Cork is great because it's eco-friendly, absorbs moisture well, and looks natural, making it a versatile choice for most decor styles. If you’re concerned about hot drinks, look for cork coasters with a heat-resistant layer.

Silicone is fantastic for hot beverages as it’s heat-resistant and non-slip, plus it comes in a variety of colors and designs to match any style. As for the best drink coasters, you can’t go wrong with these materials depending on your needs. Stone or marble coasters look beautiful but can be heavier and more prone to scratches if they’re not sealed properly.
