COTTAGE MOSAICS BY T&T




Well, I'm finally getting back to doing my mosaics. I first started doing mosaics about 10 years ago when I worked at a little store in Cheyenne (Grandma's Attic). She was kind enough to let me sell my florals there and some of my mosaics. I love to do picture frames in the blue and white china and the pink vintage china. One year I had my husband do some teacups in watercolor and then I framed it in a mosaic frame with different types of old lace for the border. It was beautiful! Now I'm trying to get him to do some more paintings for me so that I can do more mosaic frames, but.............well, I guess I should be patient. After all he does have a full time job. Check out my website for more pieces. This piece is going to end up a small lamp. As you can see, the shade is vintage. I think it is perfect.
