The Elephant in the Room

On March 19, 2020March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard6 Comments

Once there was a guest room... And because there were grandchildren, there were bunk beds.And because there was a cat, there was always someone to get up on the top bunk when the grandchildren weren't over. But then a queen size bed was added to the guest room. This did pose a few challenges, not …

...and a few new revelations! With all of Foster and Panda's recent adventures, you may have thought I had forgotten about the epic sea animal project that's been going on in my bathroom. But nothing could be farther from the truth! The first thing I would like to share is that I finally went to …

More Sea Animals!

I thought she was done... But I guess I should have known that with Mom you never can tell. So when she started bringing home all these little blue tiles I had a feeling something was up. The blue made me think of the sea animals mosaic in the bathtub. If you read "See? Animals!"  …

Why Mosaic?

On October 22, 2019March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics12 Comments

"I just want to drink coffee and make pretty things!" I've used that quote before, in "Coffee and Pretty Things", but it is so true for me that I had to use it again. In fact, I think I need to change it to "I just want to drink coffee and make everything!" So I …

Peacock Mosaics

On October 7, 2019March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics12 Comments

I was so pleased when I got this blue and green glass... Because I really wanted to make a peacock mosaic! Actually I made two. This is the first one, which is still not finished, because the tray needs to be painted. But there's nothing in the "Tracy project manual" that says you have to …

Here is Yard Art

On July 15, 2019March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard12 Comments

So on Pinterest  you can find all these ideas... And if you're in "Whimsical Mode" and into mosaics, you will probably want to try some of those ideas yourself. Especially if you're trying to make your backyard drought-resistant and just a tiny bit bohemian (read: "eccentric" if you must).This is from September of last year, but …

It Was Going to Be a Birdbath…

On June 4, 2019March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics12 Comments

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 …

See? Animals!

The Sea Animals are finished! Hi everyone, this is Foster and I'm here to show you our finished sea animals mosaic. Oh, the title? Well that's what happens when your mom used to teach beginning English learners. She got thinking, that there were a number of ways to say "sea animals", all with different meanings. …

Elephants Can Remember

On March 21, 2019March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics13 Comments

I've always liked elephants. Which is why I decided to decorate the guest room in an elephant motif. For the longest time this tiny room was home to both a queen sized bed and a set of bunk beds, which left about two feet of space for any potential guests to even walk. But now that …

Sea Animals Update

On March 10, 2019March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics17 Comments

As the saying goes...If you're doing mosaic sea animals on your bathroom tile, you might as well go all out! When we left off at the end of "Because I Can", this was how far I had gotten with the sea animals mosaic. At that point I wasn't sure if I wanted to go all …
