Mastering Mosaic
Hello everyone! Thought I would have a play with mosaics once again. I’m self taught and have only made a few projects with mosaic, but it’s a very satisfying craft and quite easy to do. I have an old wooden cabinet in my bathroom that I wanted to brighten up and to mosaic seemed a really good option. I cleaned up the top and proceeded to design the mosaic. I wanted to keep with my nautical theme in the bathroom and designed a fish for the centre of my mosaic. Before grouting Grouting done! You can’t tell from this photo but I added a little pale blue acrylic paint to the grouting which really seems to harmonise the whole piece. Just got to clean up and give it a rub up. I’m very happy with the finished piece and it’s so much brighter and cleaner than just plain wood. I hope I’ve inspired you to have a go with mosaic. I’d love to see what you make, if you’d like to share. It’s really satisfying and quite addictive! See you soon. ...
