Stuck on coasters

Still stuck on coaster details. I am determined to figure out a good way to package and label our leftover rounds.

Here I've laser cut the Actual logo onto the coasters. I used a low power vector cut (very fast) instead of a raster cut (very slow.) While it's hard to see in the photo, it looks great.
Here I've sketched a holder for 6 coasters that might work really well: it would be die cut out of orange card stock, then folded around the stack and notched or taped together in back. This holder is secure, shows the felt and the laser cut label, but also reasonably cheap to make.
I've also been experimenting with new ways of labeling the UM bags. This is a long flat-cut woven label that would be mounted at the handle on the inside of the bag.
The label is sewn in between the two layers of felt, so that you can see a little bit of orange from the outside of the bag. I like that!
