The Doings, Week 2
Posted: January 15, 2010 Filed under: Mosaics, What I've been doing 10 Comments »…back to mosaics
I have a collection of keys, purchased at a flea market ages ago. The heart shape is also a treasure from the ‘80’s when my father in law made a pile of these shapes. I like the merging of these two….along with mirror bits and brass eyelets. The question was the grouting, how would the keys turned out? Not difficult at all to keep them relatively grout free. Key to my Heart….#30
I completed a second one, for Steph, on a mirror/key hanger for her back door. This one will not be grouted. I like the distressed wood background. #31
And lastly,
Flower mirror….#32




You are amazing — the key idea was brilliant and I love it!! My biggest problem doing these artistic things is inspiration…whereas you have an endless vision. Keep up the great work
Lovely mosaics. The mirror bits do add a lot of sparkle.
Love em all!
I love “Key to My Heart”. Its charming. Steph is going to love the one you made for her. The third mosaic reminds me of cherries for some reason! Delightful.
I thought cherries too when I first looked at it!
All Loverly!
Thanks Laurie, you will come up with ideas. One thing leads to another!
Deb, these are amazing!! Key to my heart is wonderful!
Those hearts hold a fond memory for me…..
Deb, I love the keys & mirror and your other mosaics. I really like the key boards I’ve been picking up skeleton keys for years just because I like them. Keep going!
The key mosaic is great. Can’t wait to see all of them in person!
