Been on a mosaic course all weekend!!

Recommended Posts

Yes, a weekend off!! Eat your hearts out!!

I've come home with a beautiful "pebble" and a very nice vase/ pot for bits and things for the bathroom!! Weather was great, people were "interesting" :lol: and the food was excellent (we all took a bit and shared it round)

Back to reality and the laundry basket now, with my grouty hands.... :lol:

sounds great, I've always fancied trying my hand at mosaic work. I was inspired after going to guell park!

 

Would love to see some pics.

 

Are you going to carry it on now you're home?

Dont pay for a course, get a book from the libray, and a couple of friends; go to the recycle centre and get the main tiles, get the fancy ones from a shop or the net, and spend the course cost on a really nice lunch!!I shall book the church hall or similar for a few pounds, as it's impoosible at home,to get the time out; people always want feeding!!

I'll try to post some piccies later!!

Will definitely have another go at home, I mosaiced a beach pebble with bits of coloured glass, grouted in with the grey floor tile grout, and its twinkling away amongst the flowers out the front!!

Gaudi is fantastic - spent a gorgeous day at the Guell Park - and the cathedral is simply mind-blowing (even though it is far from finished!!)

 

here's a lizard from the Guell Park (was a gorgeous hot day)

and here's a top of a cathedral pinnacle (the detail cannot be seen unless you are on the roof - but the philosophy is that it is ALL a thing of beauty - even the bits not ordinarily visible to the human eye....)

and - to take up a recent theme... my dream Gaudi house!

Freddie, I bet you could do some lovely things for the garden! Plant pots, troughs, table tops etc.

 

I wonder if I could mosaic the chicken run :think:
