Throwback Thursday

Made almost 2 years to the day, this pretty blue/green candle holder caught my eye as I was rearranging things in the blanket chest that is filled with bubble wrapped mosaics for Etsy.

I think I like this candle holder because of the appealing grout color. It's also got stunning stained glass on it; a favorite to use is the clear blue that reminds me of the ocean. There's just something about these colors that are soothing and relaxing and perfect for anyone, of any age.

As I describe it on Etsy: "This beautiful candle holder soothes the soul and spirit just by looking at it. Depending on the light source, you'll see the blue green colors the best in the bottom part of this holder in daylight or the combined beauty of colors I used for it by candlelight. The top portion reminds us of water, the blue gentle waves can almost be heard when you study it. The bottom could be seaweed, swaying as the soft waves move it from left to right.

Perfect to use with a candle as a centerpiece on your table. We think this would make a great addition to an at-home spa or give the illusion that your ordinary bathroom could become one."

Throwback Thursday

This day will be dedicated to a favorite mosaic I sold or gifted. I have many; I've been making mosaics for 15 years now. And still learning!

This scrap glass candle holder/vase was sold in 2011. I am sharing the description I used on Etsy to describe it. I think I'll be making a wine bottle like this soon. I love using scrap glass and odds and ends to make mosaics with. Fun stuff!!!

I make these candle holders with decorative gems, scrap pieces of stained glass and mirror. Grouted in charcoal these have a great reflection where ever you place them.

Photos show these sitting near sun light, lamp light and with a candle lit inside. The reflections that come from these are just amazing. Must be seen to truly be appreciated.

Dubbed the "light show" recently by a customer they look great every where. Use near your tub when you soak after a hard days work with a self-contained scented candle inside to help you relax, place in the center of your table when entertaining with a candle or flowers, set among some plants in a sunny window and watch as it sparkles and shines!

Filled with many different sizes, shapes and kinds of stained glass, mirror and decorative gems they are always an eye catching addition to any room in your home.

Useful and decorative! The perfect combo!! These are all handmade with love and one of my favorite things to create.

7-1/2 inches tall x 5-1/2 inches (opening at top)

Lotus Flower Mosaic Stained Glass Vase. Petals are in all different hues of blue in stained glass; all hand cut. The center is a piece of depression glass from a broken plate. Around the flower are green/blue and purple stained glass.

This is such a gorgeous mosaic vase. From top to bottom this mosaic is filled with small square and flower petal shaped hand cut pieces. I'm very proud of this vase and it's beauty. The mosaic muse really came through for us this time! Rich concentrated colors inhabit this beauty.

Use this vase with natural light when you meditate. It's a great mandala to study and creates a wonderful Zen feeling. Especially when a candle or lights are inside. Flowers look beautiful in this vase or it can sit on a shelf or windowsill and shine on it's own. Add some LED lights inside for a nice table setting or as added interest for a corner in any room. Pull this out for special occasions or use it every single day. We love useful and decorative art.

This vase is handmade with love and one of my favorite mosaic decor items to create and give.

DO NOT SUBMERGE IN WATER.
