Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Wow @Bow

They look amazing. I love the little mushrooms and the flowers look so life like.

Do you use them in your art pieces?

You certainly have been busy today. I think you deserve to sit down and have a rest!!

Thanks @Snowie @rav3n

yes snowie, I make these little flower blocks. Lots of work in them! I will show you once I’ve finished these ones 😉

Re: My Mosaic

Really love to see them @Bow once you are finished.

Have you got much planned for the weekend? At least you don't have to get up really early for a market.

Re: My Mosaic

D is at her fathers tomorrow @Snowie so will go to the shops. Got a few things to get. Need to go to bunnings too.
She was suppose to go to her fathers on Sunday too for half the day. But apparently he feels like he is coming down with a cold and needs to rest on Sunday… pppffffftt poor him. If only I could rest when I felt like I was coming down with something. He really does infuriate me.

and no early mornings!

have you got plans?

Re: My Mosaic

Oh poor him @Bow If only we had the choice when they were sick.

I'd say she is better off with you anyway. She probably enjoys it more with you too.

Not much on tomorrow. Sunday my mum's getting together with some friends for lunch. Lucky me gets to take her, wait around and then bring her home. There is a shopping center near by, so if I feel ok I might even go there.

Re: My Mosaic

I got out and did the back lawns this morning before it got too hot. We have a couple of water tanks (dodgy ones that leak) so the grass grows super quick out the back! I’ll aim to do the front some point over the next couple of days.

Went to the shops, got everything that I needed plus some! When I first walked in I spotted a couple of groups of people with Lego bags!!! WTF?? I would have heard if a Lego store was coming to town! So I went on the hunt for where they came from. I eventually found a new toy store opening today. I went in and had a sticky beak, got a free goodie bag on the way in, lots of people had these Lego bags, but I couldn’t find where they were coming from. So I gave up.

Didn’t end up needing to go to bunnings.

And then I spent the rest of the day crafting! Here is what I did with the polymer clay flowers @Snowie @rav3n @tyme

Re: My Mosaic

Amazing @Bow. I tried polymer clay but it was too hard. You are very talented.

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Bow

Sounds and looks like you have had a really productive day.

Those pictures look great. I'm amazed at what you are able to create just from some clay and wood. You should be really proud of yourself.

I know you've got D tomorrow too. Any plans?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks @Captain24 @Snowie

you got plans?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Maybe just a day at home @Bow

Sometimes we need them.

Tomorrow have to drive mum to lunch. She is going out with friends and it's about a 2 1/2 hour round trip. So will take her, wait around and drive her home. So looking forward to it 🤦‍♀️
