NEW MOSAIC PROJECTS

Even though I work from home most days, it so nice to have a long weekend. I got caught up on so many projects and got almost done with this new mosaic project I have been working on for weeks.


I have never used the half marbles on a pot, and the challenge is significant with the curves, so I could only work a little at a time and had to let things set before I could shift the angle. I am also using some small iridized glass pieces I have and then filling with some glittery purple tiles, I wanted to make something very different than I have before - something with a bit of fantasy.




I hope the effect holds up when it is grouted.



I also grouted my new birdhouse and should be able to hang it tomorrow. I had these little red birds which I attached. It's pretty cute - and I don't usually do cute!
