Imagining a Mosaic Tile Pedestal

When the art appears in my mind, I glue it down.

No, I don’t know why – or how – it just happens.

It helps to have a variety of fun things to add.

Heart Art

From one artist to another … a blast from the past.

Someone stenciled this discarded heart-shaped piece of wood.

It was one of those thrift store finds that immediately got my attention and did not end up in storage. I cut and glued vintage china shards, pink iridescent tile, red mirror tile, silver tapestry tile, green glass gems, a couple of red glass hearts, red lips and finished it off with charcoal grout.

It sold the day it was finished. No regrets, except not keeping it. 😉

Charcoal was a good choice.

Moving on … insert whooshing sound here. “D”

Finally unpacked the boxes in the basement. Found the glue but not the toolbox.

Taking that as a sign that I’m suppose to be doing other things sans tools.
