A New Project - Mosaic Bird Bath

Here's a glimpse of a new project I hope to start soon. I bought these mosaic pieces on eBay. It's great, they are all flat. The problem I've had in the past when I've done mosaics is that the broken plates are not totally flat so they don't lay well. These are made flat just for mosaics! Click here for the eBay seller. She's in the San Francisco Bay Area too so I received them so quickly! I love that big pansy piece on the bottom!

I'm going to attempt to cover the bowl of this old birdbath with them. I still need to get some other pieces. I think I will add some solid blue and purple tile pieces. The birdbath has a crack and it doesn't hold water for very long so I'm hoping this will help. If not, I hope it at least looks pretty.

I've done a little bit of mosaic work but if you have any pointers, please let me know.

I'm still working on the chandelier project too. There was a screw missing in one of the light sockets. Wouldn't you just know that it was some weird size that I couldn't find anywhere. Thank goodness for the Internet. I was able to find someone selling that size...I had to buy 25 screws when I only needed 1. I received the order yesterday and they sent me the wrong size!
