Here is my current mosaic work in progress, sitting on a lazy susan for easy turning. I was using this clay pot upsidedown on my porch as a plant stand. I am using thinset to apply the glass, but I don't trust the cheap clay pot ($12 at Biglots) out for winter, so I will keep it as a plant stand on my porch.
My concept is a luna moth on a tree trunk, and on the back of the tree a little birch tree grows. I'm going to mosaic a saucer and attach it to the top, not sure how that will fit with the theme, maybe just cover it with leaves.
And here are some bricks that my friend Susan and I mosaicked to go into the corners of a planter in our downtown. I call them, Bright Lights Big City Rubicks Cube
Thanks for looking!

I like it. It's going to be nice when you get it finished.
ReplyDeleteYour bricks are neat.
I love the bricks and I'm sure the plant stand will be beautiful when it's finished. Some day I'm going to get into mosaics....some day..
ReplyDeleteHi there
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen bricks like that before and they do look like the big city. The mosaic pot is going to be lovely. Great job...and I'll be back to see it when its finished.
enjoy..

Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting--I was so happy to find your fun blog. I came across the "ten minutes a day" idea as "writing your dissertation in 15 minutes a day" and it's a good way of getting motivated. Love your mosaics (the lamp turned out so well). Wish I could find glass tiles at a reasonable price. Until then, I'll have to use wall tiles--but I'm not complaining! Love your yard art. I look forward to following your projects!
ReplyDeletebest, nadia
I love the idea of doing a mosaic on bricks. I've got several laying around just waiting for a project like that.
ReplyDeleteReally like those brick mosaics!
ReplyDeleteThanks for droopping by. I am now following you and will enjoy looking through your posts.
I am hosting my first linky party the "Bunny Hop" and you are invited! (Sign up starts Tuesday at noon)

ReplyDeleteI'm interested in public art and will look for a picture of the planters when they are finished! Gorgeous greens in the stand, too!!!
