Small Mosaic Circle


This was a fun and quick project. Broken china focal piece with ceramic tile surrounding it. Measures 6 1/2 inches across, a perfect piece for a small spot on a wall that needs a little something extra.

Grouted!



Grouted today and I'm glad that's done LOL! Always such a mess, I think it's the worst part of mosaics. Anyway, included a close up shot of the center area with the dichroic cabs I fused for the flower centers. Makes this piece fun.

WIP - Dog Leash Holder


Fell in love with this MDF base shaped like a bone. I spent today on it and only have the border edging glass left to cut and glue on. The hooks are removed until after grouting. The paws were made by a talented clay artist on Etsy as was the base.

WIP Large Flower Panel


Ready to grout -- this project has consumed 2 weeks of my time already...I thought I'd have it finished last weekend --Ha!
Hope to grout tomorrow.

Grouted




















I finally got this one grouted. Hmm, what to plant in it....something that won't cover the all of design and work I put into it.

A Few Fused Dishes




I haven't posted anything in a long time!

Small dishes are a fun way to try new designs and techniques. These dishes are small (5"x5") and a nice size for displaying or using to collect "things" in.

The first one has dichroic accents on an iridescent blue base and black wavy noodles. The two woven dishes are made on a clear base with iridescent glass on the top layer of the weave.
