Never get locked out of the house AGAIN with this fun upcycling idea! Create garden stepping stones or mosaic stepping stone by upcycling a cake pan as a concrete mold and a pill bottle as a key hider! How great is that - upcycling TWICE in the same helpful project that doubles as garden decor.

Last day to order for the holidays is Dec 19th. My kits are great stocking stuffers or just to have something to hand out to the kids if they get bored while waiting for dinner. (Crafty moms would love to get these in their stockings! Lol 😉😉 I know from experience) #stockingstuffers #stockingstufferdiy #diykits #craftymom #makeit #makesomethingawesome #crafty #craftykits #craftykits4u #mosaiccrafts #christmastime

The last three mosaic images posted all use a knotwork border. Traditionally known as guilloche (actually an 18th century French term) these intertwining rope patterns were used extensively in Roman floor mosaics across the whole Roman world. The basic pattern is of two strands, but there are many variants, the one in this picture is a three strand guilloche being constructed in the studio. But there is also four, five and six strands or more as well as other looped back variations. The beauty of them from a mosaic makers point of view is they appear incredibly intricate and elaborate but there construction, and the amount of cutting involved, is relatively simple. One thing those Roman mosaic makers really knew was how to create incredible mosaics in the most economic way. #mosaic #guilloche #romanmosaic #mosaicpattern #knotwork #ropepattern #mosaiccraft https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxvies5gXAL/?igshid=1acnjiozuapec

Making Mosaics - the paper-face technique. Step Six: Interstices. Interstices is the name given to the gap between the tesserae in mosaic. Often overlooked, the interstices are an integral part of the structure, and aesthetic, of a mosaic. Unless there is a specific reason these should be kept even and equal across the mosaic. #mosaic #stepbystep #makingmosaics #interstices #craft #mosaiccraft (at Drostle Public Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Btgl9CrgJ9c/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z8jj970t3v5v

Catch Lights- An Absolute Must for #mosaics! Because it is the hardest part of the face to create, I always start with the eyes. If I don't get the eyes right, the rest won't be worth the effort, so that's why I always ... #howto #howtomosaic #mosaictile. #mosaiccrafts #diy #mosaicdiy #makemosaics #skeew.biz #mosaictile #mosaicsurface #mosaicbacker | Like My Facebook Page >> https://ift.tt/2jty87z ...
