Doll Mosaic Jewelry Box Finished






















Well it's only been about 2 months past when I thought I'd be finished, but I've finally made the finishing touches on the jewelry box for my mom. It turned out great - I just love the patterns and textures of the tiles! It was supposed to be a surprise for my mom, but I couldn't help but show her the work in progress pictures. I can't wait to give it to her later tonight...

Goodwill Sign Donated


This mosaic was created for the office that I work in and was donated earlier this year. Goodwill has a great logo with clean lines, so it was a lot of fun to work on!

EMA "For the Birds" Mosaic Challenge



The Etsy Mosaic Artists just finished up with a mosaic birdhouse Challenge this weekend. Everyone was invited to participate and mosaic any type of birdhouse. The challenge ended at midnight EST on Friday. It is now time for everyone to vote on their favorite birdhouse. Visit the EMA blog at www.etsymosaics.blogspot.com and vote for your favorite!

My birdhouse is #23. It was a blast participating in the challenge, but I definitely learned my lesson not to procrastinate getting started next time. I ran into a few road blocks during the process but feel that the birdhouse turned out alright. There were some really amazing birdhouse entries for this challenge - including a couple of tiki huts, a ufo, and a pretty scary Ozzified birdhouse!
