Mosaic Monday - Blue Glass Mosaic Flower Dish

Blue Glass Mosaic Flower Dish

 

Materials: tempered glass, glass circles

Dimensions: Height: 8 Inches
 

Flower petal plate in spring pastel blue with tempered or crash glass, half circles in iridescent glass and grouted in white. The flower is similar to a hibiscus in shape. Note: see the photo of the back to see it on the website. The plate has an iridescent shimmer to it. Adding the tempered glass to it makes the shimmer still come through.

Makes a great gift for Mom, sister, aunt. This plate is purely decorative. Add it to a shelf or a side table near a window and let the sun do it's magic. You can put your keys, rings and coins in it however the metals over time will change the color of the grout. Grout whitener found in many stores will help keep it fresh.

Measures 8 inches. Plate stand included.

Indoor use only.

Mosaic Monday - Patchwork Peace Sign

Some of you may recall I had wanted to add a pretty daisy flower brooch on this peace sign. After completed it, it stood on it's own, without the brooch and distinctly told me it didn't need the added bling to look fantastic. I never mess with the muse, as I've often said, so here it is, as is, as a patchwork peace sign, standing on it's own. And looking fantastic!

Mosaic Peace Sign

 

 

Material: stained glass

Dimensions: Height: 8 Inches

Isn't this "Patchwork Peace Sign" cool? It reminds me of a crocheted throw blanket or an old-fashioned quilt. Done in many colors of stained glass in orange, red, beige, blue, green, brown and yellow. There are beige and green half circles in glass and small blue hand cut rods.

Gift this to someone who loves peace signs. Makes a great birthday present, holiday gift, anniversary gift, or a just because gift.

Works well in most every room. I'd say those who have a flair for homey decor will love this addition to their nest.

Back has a key hole hanger making it ready for the wall. A felt pad has been attached so the painted back will not scratch your walls. Signed and dated.

Indoor use only.

Mosaic Monday - Mosaic Stained Glass Trivet

 Mosaic Stained Glass Trivet

Material: stained glass

Dimensions: Width: 6.5 Inches

A plain, boring mirrored candle holder and/or trivet is now a piece of original mosaic art! A simple design in waves of stained glass in orange, amber, yellow and red weave throughout this 6-1/2 inch trivet. Felt pads on the bottom to protect your table or other surfaces.

The reflective qualities in this are outstanding. You can see from the photos the way the triangles are shown throughout the mirror underneath the glass. In bright light you have an amazing light show!

This mirrored trivet looks great sitting on a table with a lit candle in the center - reflections go everywhere. This would make a great wedding gift or housewarming gift. Give the gift of handmade art to those you love. Or keep it for yourself and enjoy!

Indoor use only.

Tesserae Tuesday

Last week I mentioned I'd be sharing Christmas gifts I've made for the next few weeks. The last 2 are on their way to their destination now. That means I can share them here when the time comes. I'm sharing them in the order I made them in.

The next one I made was this mandala.

Taking 3 different patterns (one of my own) and combining them, I created a really cool mandala. I wasn't sure how I'd get all the glass and circles on them. I knew this was a good start.

Adding ball chain and broken necklace pieces, stained glass, mirror, ceramic nano tiles and glass rod pieces, I started on the journey that was one of the most intense I've taken in quite some time.

Small pieces of glass and mirror required tweezers and a steady hand. This wasn't something I could zip through quickly.

I'll let the rest of this post speak for itself through photographs. What a wonderful journey this was.

The friends I gifted it with really love it. I am looking forward to making something like this again soon. Maybe on a glass plate, maybe like this one, on a board and framed. I have to say I loved the experience and felt I learned that although the original design was kind of lost, it didn't take away from the final results at all.
