We will mosaic anything!!!!

18 years ago

I have been so busy this week!! I have so much to catch up on. I've been peeking in on a few things during my lunch hour but am WAY behind in posting and reading all your comments on others post. Will catch up on Sunday after church.

You know we always said we would mosaic anything!!! Well here it is!!!

{{!gwi}}

I have a party that I am going to after work tomorrow and it is a byob (bring your own banana) but the catch is you had to decorate it...sooo I did!!! Its a southern living accent party and afterwards they are making banana splits (hence the banana!!!) well I just had to mosaic!!! I used scraps of glass and the gems. I'll let you know this weekend how they liked it!!!

Oh and by the way.....it isn't a real banana, it looks real though doesnt it? I got it at Joannes fabrics. It looks so real!!

    Ha! Before I read that last line I was thinking "Ewww, that's gonna be really gross when the little "bananna flies" show up and set up camp on the mosaic!"

    What a creative way to dress the lowly banana! And all this time I thought they were only good for daquiries(sp?) and Chiquita's hat!

    It's a real banana!!
    You make banana splits with them, but you have to bring them decorated. Crazy huh?

    You sure got me! I guess I didn't read that last line!

    Thought I had commented. Just wanted to tell you I LMAO when I saw your pic. Still do each time I see it. Really great!

    Thanks girls...it was a fun party! I got the prize for "most creative" banana!!! The beautiful thing is everyone thought it was real. That is how real it looks. Its called a weighted banana (it has weight to it when you pick it up!!) When I told them it wasn't real they had to check it out again to verify it wasn't real!!!

  • 18 years ago

    So glad I wasn't the only one!!!hahah

    So why didn't you do real one?
    I thought about this alot when I told hubby it was "REAL"
    I think the silicone would've been ok....banana's are moist... the grout..would've been iffy....but temporary!
    So what made you not do a real one? gotta know!!
    I made mine a hula dancer...I spent $20 bucks on a banana
    split!!!hahhaha

    I didn't have the heart to mosaic something that I would destroy!!!! Isn't that silly..even though I wasn't to keen on keeping it and I had to do it in a period of a week after work so I didn't have time to do it all in one night and I was afraid the banana would be bad before I ever got to the party!!

    I'll bet your hula girl was really cute!!! The best one we had was a banana swinging in a hammock with sunglasses on sipping a drink...oh ya it even had dread locks!!! It won coolest!
