Table Update

On June 14, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics13 Comments

We all know that grouting is the best part, right? I guess it is, if you're outside and you're not too stressed about getting the color wrong. The other day it was time to put the grout on the mosaic table. I was almost out of that color, but fortunately I had enough to finish …

Almost Done!

Or, "It's All Over But the Grouting!" This is where we left off on March 29, in "The Table Mosaic". The view is from the back living room window, and I had just started to put the pieces around the little plate in the center. Gradually, the design grew. And as you can see, I …

The Table Mosaic

On March 29, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics12 Comments

You can only let a table sit there for so long without a mosaic, right? You may know by now that a flat, empty space anywhere is just a project waiting to happen at my house. This is not to say that much contemplation hasn't gone into (most of) my projects. But finally the idea …

It Was Going to Be a Birdbath…

Remember this? Yes, it's the famous toilet from "The Art of Being Big Girl Continued"! If you remember, it took me about three days to change out the toilet in the guest bathroom. My first thought was to put the old one out on the curb for the yearly neighborhood trash pick up. But we …

The Long and Winding Curb

On September 9, 2018May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

Have you ever just wanted to smash a plate? Me neither, really. But after playing with glass gems and grout on my "Whimsical Mushroom", and after my sidewalk patch "mosaic", I got another idea...Wouldn't it be so fun to make a mosaic on the little strip of curbing in the back corner of the yard …

Where the Sidewalk Ends (or Begins?)

On August 28, 2018May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

Remember when I told you how fun it is to play with wet cement? Well, I still had some cement left over from "Just Add Water", so I got an idea...I have several places in my "whimsical" backyard where the cement is broken, and it looked like I had enough cement left to fill at …
