Step 1

Add a layer of shaving foam to an old plate (enamel ones work well as the ink will wash off of them easily). Drop a few dots of navy ink across the shaving cream. Marble together using a stirring stick to weave the ink through the cream to create a swirled effect.

Step 2

Place the ceramic coaster down into the marbled shaving foam and then remove the excess cream with a swipe using either an old blunt knife or rubber spatula. You can also run them under the tap to make sure all the foam is removed.

Step 3

Once they are dry add gold details with the gilding wax. Buff the wax on using a paintbrush and use the lines of the marble as a guide for the gold for a cohesive look.
