I remember trying to google those - impossible Roll Eyes

I tried every term I could think of with some very strange results. I ended up making small glass bumps and sticking them on my coasters, at least I can use matching glass Smiley

I did try 'bump-ons' and got this

but I haven't bought any from them as I found them after I started using the glass ones

Yes i've tried every term I can think of on ebay but with no luck. I've a feeling that they have a weird name that I heard once and promptly forgot.
The ones in the link look perfect if they are made of the squishy silicon stuff (technical terminology there)

They do look the thing but I think I was put off by the industrial look to the site and the fear that I would have to order thousands  Shocked

Not sure if you wanted clear ones or opaque, but Warm Glass sell the clear bumpers, in 3 sizes.

I used the B&Q ones when some came off the fused glass coasters we have and they have lasted much better than the ones originally on Cheesy

If you search for 'page pebbles', you'll find them in lots of different shapes and sizes. They're very popular with papercrafters.

Now that is one description I would never have come up with Roll Eyes
