This is sooooooooo beautiful. I love how you've used contrast so the design shows. Lovely design too. Are all your tess ceramic tile? Your cutting is exceptional.

Thanks Slow. Yes, all of the tess are ceramic tile. The really long pointy bits were a pain to nip. With a few, I'd almost get them right, then they would break right through the middle - &%@*. That's when I'd have a little break and come back. It's when you see the finished item (and the absolute delight on my Inlaw's faces) that you know it was all worth it.

I would really love to do a glass mosaic. I look at your work, and heaps of others on this site, and see how beautiful they look, but they scare me for some reason. I can pick up ceramic tiles quite cheaply here, but stained glass is quite expensive. Maybe I'm just scared of wasting the glass if I mess it up ?. I also love the way you use the bottoms of bottles but I don't have the means to cut them at the moment.
Anyhow, with this project now completed, I'll move on to my next one.

Ohhhh, Very Pretty! Love the color combo! The design has a real Art Nouveau look to it...veeerrry nice!
