“The earth laughs in flowers.”

My last 2 mosaics of the year. The basket of flowers I made at the studio, and the picture frame I made at home. I am trying to get used to doing projects at home, for those times that the studio is closed.
They are mostly made from dinner plates and coffee mugs.
With each project I get more and more ideas. The mosaic world is huge and I want to explore it all! May you find a hobby you love as much as I love doing mosaics!

Beautiful!! Nice that you can work on projects at home. Do you go to thrift stores, buy plates/cups, etc. and break them with a hammer? Would love to see a post where you talk about that part of the process and the type of glue you use. I’m wondering how you keep those bigger pieces glued on. LOVE the flowers.

Thank you! I buy some of the material online and from the studio, but, yes I do go to thrift stores looking for old ceramic and also frames. I do cut some of the plates with a mosaic cutter plier. I try to do the cutting and also grouting at the studio as it can get very messy. I use tacky or adhesive glue for most of it, but for the bigger, heavier pieces I use a tile paste adhesive.
Wishing you a blessed holiday season!

I love your artwork. I like the texture and 3d aspect of it, and thought the picture frame was cool also. I wish WP could dial back the ads on pages as it is sometimes distracting but I guess that’s what they want.
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas break. Thanks for your friendship. – David
