I love all the beautiful items the mosaic artists make, I had to try it. This is my 1st attempt, please dont judge me, it has many problems & needs a bit more grout, but here was the process.
This table is very old, was my parents they had tiled it years ago. I cracked out the tiles & upolsetered it & used it as an ottoman.
Then I wanted a mosaic top & here you have it
It was fun crashing up all the tiles & china.
Then spent hours & hours trying to fill all the little holes. Even the kids helped!
The grout process, I ran out twice, 3 gashes on my fingers & still need to add more grout!
Like I said, there are many flaws, the oval in the center was supposed to be a circle, the tiles are not all the same thickness, so there are low spots, but I enjoy my colorful shabby mosaic table on my front porch!
After some finishing touches, it will be the perfect accent for my morning coffee & my nite time Merlo, now if I can just keep the kids icepops off it!!!
mybe lollypops are ok....
Happy summer time, the lightning bugs are out & warm weather is here, ENJOY it!!!
