Examples of shabby chic mosaics?

19 years ago

I've got a student who would love to see some examples of shabby chic mosaics(you know the pretty little delicate looking floral stuff) maybe some examples using strings of beads too? I run into them all the time but now that I need them I can't find exactly what I am looking for. Anybody got some links to pages with this kind of work? I know I've seen that kind of work here but don't remember whose work it was.

    I know lots of lilym's work fits this category. And it's PRETTY too! Do a site search for her work.

    Hey thank J thats the one of the ones I remember. Gosh that stuff is fun to see again, I bookmarked it this time. I tried google but did not get the results that I was looking for(lots of people claiming to be shabby chic that other style names would really more apply to their style). I'll send on the links to my student, she wasn't happy with her stone that she completed and asked her what she liked and I thought of the shabby chic looking mosaics.

    Sorry, SLOW, it's a small rock and I have a big butt! Besides, YOUR rock is carved into a throne on which you can deservedly preside as Queen of us lowly wannabees!

    SLOW: I meant Queen OVER, not Queen OF the Wannabees! You are waaaaaay beyond wannabee!

    LADY: This one made me CACKLE OUT LOUD. CRAZY LADY!!! My first works were better than what I'm doing the last three days. If you could see the mess I'm making of my bathroom counter, you'd agree that I should retire. Soon as I get it covered - hopefully today - I'll take a pic. WENCH doesn't show pics of her failures, but I've no pride - I'm gonna show this piece of cra_ so y'all can cry w/me. PEA - don't mean to grab your thread but I'm whinning today.

    Slow I doubt it's nearly as crappy as you think it is. Keep gluing and soon it will be the freshest lemonade anyone has tasted!

    {{!gwi}} Here are a couple of things that I have done in Shabby Chic.

    OH COPPER: I remember those, and while I'm not a SC person, I absolutely LOVE these, and could easily have them in my house. BEAUTIFUL work, and it inspires me to do a little SC.
