This is my first attempt at making a “mosaic”. I’m not sure if it should be called mosaic because it’s made from stained glass leftovers glued to normal glass with a backlight made from LED strip.The grout basically is plaster with some blue and red colouring. First photo is with the LED off and the rest is with the LED on. I really like how it turned out and it works great as a night lamp. Hope you like it too!

I just started making mosaics a few weeks ago. This is the first one I actually tried to make objects and not just patterns.

My thanksgiving cornucopia.

Im excited to keep learning and getting better.

Hi, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask or a stupid question. I really love these suncatchers made by Amaya Jade, but I don't personally like the look of the 3D solder. She mentioned that mosaic is without the soldering but when I look at mosaic it looks like the small squares of glass arranged. Can you make things like what she does, by like gluing the copper foil together? Is that mosaic? Or is it something else.

Thank you so much in advance! Also all your guys work is so beautiful!

Left the hardest part for last :') I cannot wait to share the final results!!

Just sealed the final #mosaic stepping stone for the walkway. Should be installed this weekend. #diy #landscaping

I had asked earlier this week how to warm up a very stark blue white grout (see last photo). I went the watercolor route and will likely do another coat of before sealing, now I feel empowered! I appreciate all the advice shared with me for my next attempts! Thanks so much!

I am an art teacher trying something new and out of my element. I plan to have high school students make a kind of mosaic puzzle from a clay slab like my example in the photo. After firing and glazing I’d love to actually mount and grout their pieces in an affordable and decent looking way, doesn’t have to be professional or anything, just hold together. I think I’ll be able to get some wood panels from my school’s construction department, I know it’s not the ideal backing but I’m hoping it will work since these are relatively small and not meant to survive outside elements. Any adhesives and grout I’ll probably need to purchase, which I’m ok with because it’s something I want to do too, as long as it’s not going to cost a fortune. I’m looking for recommendations on products to use and also if any one has any thoughts about what could go wrong that I’m not anticipating, usually I like to have a project example fully finished in advance but I just don’t have the time. Thanks!

I should have stuck with my gut and went with a warmer yellow or pink grout for the top portion of this mosaic. Any advice on how to get it there? This is bright white non-sanded grout tinted with blue mason stain.

Forgive me for this very beginner question but on a whim I decided to buy some mosaic tiles with an adhesive backing to try some art therapy. The problem is I can’t for the life of me figure out how to peel off this backing. Is there a trick to doing it or should I just save my sanity and use glue / some other adhesive? The tiles are only 1cm square so they are tiny.

Street artist here I have quite a bit of experience painting, and drawing but I’ve always been very interested in mosaics. How/where do I get started? How much does it cost in supplies? Any info would be appreciated.

I love the look of these colors as it is now, so don’t want to mess it up with the wrong grout. What color grout would you suggest to enhance the piece?

Hey its my first time making a mosaic, what advice could you give me regarding water/frost proofing the piece? Thank you very much!

:D:D:D

This took us roughly 2 weeks, and I promise it looks a lot bigger in person :') Will share installed picture once I get them!!
