Free Pebble Mosaics: Step-By-Step Projects For Inside & Out Ebooks To Download
Mosaic-making is the craft craze of recent years, and understandably so. Although the results may look complicated, the basic technique is easy to master, allowing even beginners to create original decorative pieces for the home. Talented designer Ann Frith has drawn on the ancient tradition of pebble mosaic to devise 12 contemporary projects using pebbles and other natural materials such as broken slate, flint and glass. Traditionally used as outdoor decoration on garden paths and floors, Ann also shows how it can be incorporated in the home - in entrance ways, conservatories, bathrooms or on fire hearths. In addition to the detailed projects, inspirational examples of pebble mosaic in both new and historical settings, and drawings by the author showing further ideas and colourways, set the scene for further experimentation.

I looked at many pebble mosaic books before deciding on this one.Has many hints and ideas for the beginner, with marvelous step-by-step instructions. Her mosaic patterns and use of material are some of the most creative I have seen.
Great book, informative, tells you how to do it, where to look for supplies, and important considerations, such as placing the rocks vertically for strength ( I would have done them horizontally, and ruined my whole creation). I recommend this book to anyone wanting to make a pebble mosaic. Beautiful drawings & photos. Very helpful.
I rented this book from the library, and just had to find it to buy!! One of the best books for this type of project. Great projects and easy step by step instructions.Took longer to arrive than if ships it, ....couple of weeks. But it arrived in great condition!
