"Easy Mosaics for Your Home and Garden" is inspiring. In a fun and easy to follow style, the book explains in words and pictures how to create a number of beautiful mosaic projects both for indoors and the garden. The instructions are clear and photos very helpful. The author makes mosaic art non-intimidating, by using a non-fussy easy clean-up approach. I have had a lot of fun using the book as a step-by-step guide in making projects with family members-some of whom had never touched an art or craft project before. Each project results in a beautiful or whimsical piece of mosaic art. Definitely a fun guide and great book!
I bought this book, knowing nothing about making stepping stones or working with stained glass. Great book! I have made some beautiful stepping stones (using tumbled stained glass). . . this book gave me the basics and some great ideas. I recommend it for anyone interested in crafts of this type!
There are lots and lots of great easy ideas. I feel really inspired after just looking through the book! The technique the author uses is different from the one I've always used, but it looks fun and probably a great way for kids and other beginners to start. I'm anxious to try it, and I plan to incoropate a lot of the ideas from the books into my future mosaic projects!!
Like a previous reviewer, I checked out this book (and others on the same subject) from the library. I found THIS one to be the easiest and most informative on how to make your own mosaics using not too many materials.
There are good tips in this book, and it is a great way to get started in mosaics. My only gripe is that the author uses kits instead of making molds. The designs are her own and the instructions are clear and easy to understand. This is an ideal book for those who want to get started and be successful without too much risk.
Easy Mosaics is just like the title, great project ideas for the gardener/artist. Nice photos & great information! I would recommend it for beginning mosaic artists.
I am a beginning mosaic artists and this book is full of good information to get me started and move towards learning more.
