I got the top finished

19 years ago

Who knows how long until the bottom is done!

It's rougher than I like but I just didn't have enough of same thickness, well not when I started out. Then I was given 4 or 5 bowls after I'd started. As a matter of fact when I started I didn't have enough blue/white so I took a plate off my wall and broke it. That's getting pretty bad isn't it? :)

I can't decide if I want to line the edge of the bottom tier with the half marbles, what do you think, or would it look better to stay with similar to the top? Pics not very good, kind of washed out but I'm in a hurry to show it. LOL

    Lily, you know you are a real addict when you resort to taking a plate off the wall to bust up so you can use it to mosaic!!! LOL

    Your table looks very pretty. Were you going to add anything besides the row of gems along the outside edge? Right now, the way you have them lined up I think it distracts from the top of the table. However, if you are going to fill it in with dishes then it might look okay.

    No, I'm going to fill in pretty much like the top but just wondered how it would look outlined with the gems around the edge. I'm thinking it would look better without them.

    Pretty Lilym!! Yes, you are really addicted! A plate off your wall-wow LOL!

    I think without the marbles for the bottom!

    I can't believe you took a plate off your wall...that's too funny! well it probably wasn't long for this world anyway,

    What a transformation for that table! Love the blue and white patterns. I have a feeling you're not the only one who walks around the house loking for stuff to break - I know I have been. You're just the only one who actually did it and admits to it, lol.

    That looks awesome! I love blue plates, blue glass, anything in blue china! Great job!!

    This is very pretty, LILY. I am into blue stuff right now myself. Unfortunately I have no blue plates, but I sure was eyeing some at someone else's house the other day! She doesn't know I mosaic, and she sure gave me a funny look when I told her, "OOOOOH, I'd love to take those home and break them!" ;D

    lilly - it's looking really pretty! I just love the blue and white.

    Thanks, here is a pic of the wall and the bottom plate on the right is the one that took up the empty space until I find another. It's the one with the Texas Bluebonnets.I felt kind of bad breaking it but that's how it goes when you're sick and afflicted with mosaicitis.

    Very pretty table, LIL, as is all your work. If I needed blue/white, there wouldn't be a plate left on that wall. Go, girl - you got the disease, treat it! I'd say there are a couple or three more tables on that wall.

    LOL slow, it might just happen. Blue/white is hard to come by, mostly because the price on it is usually more than I want to pay for a plate. I'm beginning to get a stash of china more than I can store but I'm on the hunt for something "child" like. I'd like to find a little old table, preferably round, and do a work table for a little one. So far no luck.
