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 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

yesss i'm in love with it already hehe, i can't wait personalise the interior!! @Bow

oh nice! how are you feeling about him staying over? are you both close?

Lego and crafts are definitely good backups, did you have any particular projects/lego sets that you've been meaning to work on? Oh do you like working with beads?

haha sounds like D's played with them heaps and made the most of it! are you into sewing? maybe that could be something to occupy your time, making clothes for the naked dolls 🤔 was she ever into bratz, monster highs, etc? my sis used to love those too.

awww i can't get over how CUTEEEE this is!! i don't blame them for disrupting your workspace, it looks soooo cosy hehe.

Re: My Mosaic

oh how do you indeed to personalize your car?


My brother is good in small amounts @rav3n he has a number of disabilities so can be a lot of work. But I got my space to escape to if needed.

I’ll probably do more of my book sculpture. And nah never really got into beading. I have a couple of Lego kits in the cupboard that I could do.

I use to sew lots. Use to make all my D’s clothes. But she is fussy now and hasn’t wore a dress in ages! I use to love making them, loved the vintage vibe.

im super tired. Been yawning big all afternoon.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow so i wanna get seat covers that are black/dark blue to match the outside of my car. and i kinda wanna play around with LED lights - it looks cool in videos i've seen but i'm worried i'll get annoyed of the light... and i've also seen cute lil airfreshner gadgets but still need to look into them. do you have any interior inspos too?

that's fair, and glad you've got your space sorted too. hoping those 2 weeks go well for you all! oo yess and if you do work on your book sculpture or Lego kits, send me some pics! ahh yep, i asked abt the beading cos i saw this craft idea and someone in the comments mentioned using clay for the pot, which reminded me of the polymer clay stuff you make!

oooo love vintage vibes too!!! D's missing out, but maybe in a couple years she'll change her mind and come back asking for you to whip something up for her!

hope you get some rest tonight!! in case i don't get to reply in time, good night & take care!! you CAN conquer tomorrow, i believe in you!! 💙

Re: My Mosaic

Ah gosh I remember when I got my first car @rav3n i decked it out with bright pink everything. I even got some pink fluffy fabric and put it up the back. I got a new car nearly a year ago and haven’t done a thing! My box of random stuff that I quickly grabbed out of my old car is still sitting in the spare room. But. She desperately needs a wash and vacuum which I have been saying for months and then I have one sticker to put on her.
have you given your car a name?
mine is called Missy, cause she is a Mitsubishi.

Oh I absolutely adore that little beaded pot!

I got to the shops this morning. Got my nails done, ticked everything off my list and then home to clean and tidy a bit and now I am doing some craft.

this is the type of vintage that I adored and use to go hunting at op shops and markets for gorgeous embroidered fabric.

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @tyme welcome back. I hope you had some much needed chill time.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks hun. I think I'm away this week too... I don't even know lol.

I've accrued too much leave and need to take it off, but I miss you all too much, so I'll be around on Sundays. @Bow

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

As long as you don’t go try and do a weeks worth of work on Sundays and undo the week off @tyme

@did you get up to much?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

LOL @Bow . You know me well.

To be honest, I can't help but pop in to do things on the forums here and there even when I'm on leave. The forums are my life, so it's hard to separate it and treat it as 'work'.

But the other thing is, I still haven't fully recovered from shingles. Then after shingles, I developed a bad infection and am still on very strong antibiotics. I passed out twice and hit my face and back... so still de-bruising at the moment.

Nothing to worry about. I'm just glad to be here.
