Back With Projects

19 years ago

Just come back visiting my inlaws. We mosaiced everyday! My MIL had lots of fun & now has lots of pretty things for her yard. We even made a coneflower stepping stone! We also made a penny BB and I took a bare cement leaf down & she painted it too.

Then I come back & everyone is into painting clear glass. I'm going to play with that tomorrow! Oooh ~ that looks fun!

    WOW How wonderful to go for a visit and have such a great time. So which one of you got started on the mosaics and hooked the other?? So many fun projects. You will have lasting memories of your visit. Good Job both of you.

    Also great web page. Did you do all that code??

    My GOODNESS, you were busy. Isn't it great getting someone else hooked on mosaicing. I LOVE them ALL, especially the rooster and cone flower.

    Love the rooster but ohhhhh, I want one of those little yorkies. I am really yearning again for a small dog. :(

    Nicethyme - yes, the rooster is a birdbath. We did the birdbath last year in ceramic tiles & water went under the colored part of the tile & come off & she was crushed. This year was in stained glass & some dishes. I just started in stained glass this year.

    My MIL won't mosaic on her own but she loved doing the projects & all the glueing. Nice memories. She was amazed how they turned out. My stepfather had been sick & he passed away 3 weeks ago. I cut the glass for MIL visit the very last minute (night before) & now I have to make me some of these stepping stones. I want some too!

    Shades - here's a link to the code. It's pretty easy. Haven't checked it in other browsers but Internet Explorer though. Code is just like mosaicing with everyone copying ideas :o)

    Wow you girls were busy!!!! How long did you stay? I also am sorry about your SD passing. It all looks so great!!! Great of you to do all that for her to help her stay busy!!!!!!

    DH & I were there for a week. Yes, we stayed busy. Everything turned out great & that birdbath is her pride & joy. She had everything planted in her garden before we left, LOL. And my FIL mentioned a hummingbird stepping stone for the next visit. And I had made the bluejean planter for my FIL & forgot it!!!!
