Use the good stuff - mosaic style

I haven’t done any mosaics in a while and got an itch. I’ve had this oval wood piece for years so it all started with that. I played around with some flat-back marbles I had and thought the broken china would be a nice compliment.

I always forget how long it take to grout.

I can’t resist, must pour resin as a finish.

The oval one was made as a gift exchange at the Midwest Meetup!

These are downright delightful! I love how the black grout makes the pieces really be the stars of the show.

It’s so beautiful! And huge in person. It’s incredibly impressive.

It’s so pretty. @Edel received in the exchange, but it was too much to carry home, so in the spirit of LC, she then gifted to @GeekyBookworm who hadn’t brought a gift to the exchange as she had been busy with other things.

Talk was done to turn it into a small table, and I speculate that will happen in the future.

@sheepBlue, it was fun to see your process making this.

Very pretty. I bet the seed beads really catch the light and sparkle.

Very cool! Always wanted to do mosaic, but never tried it. Yours are awesome!

Sooo super cool! I love the broken china in those flowers. I didn’t realize all those tiny seed beads were in there. Wow! And the resin just finishes these off perfectly.

The round one lives with me now. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: De and I are figuring out the best location for it!

Thanks everyone!

@Lynx I also thought it might make a good side table top!

@Abbeeroad The beads partially got lost in the terrain of the oval piece. You can see them more clearly in person.
