Painted Tiles are in the store... and some are an outright steal !!!!!!!!!!!

15x15 Glass Painted tiles and some 15x15 glass squares painted are now loaded onto the store under Mosaic Supplies- Painted Tiles, or access through the Newest Products tab. Indoors only. These tiles are great to use whole, or you can also cut them with wheeled nippers. I went through a stage of cutting these tiles into tiny pieces- each 15mm tile into 16, and most were successful. Some you lose the paint. This is the nature of the tile and all others like these.  There is no other way without considerable outlay to achieve that lovely metallic, colourful foil look...

Rainbow Pendant

I've always had a love affair with rainbows. I think I used to paint them all the time at school. My studio is set up with all my tesserae in order of the colours of the rainbow. I made these Rainbow Pendants to share my love of rainbows. Inspired by the rain we have had in WAust over the last few days,... I've had glimpses of rainbows here and there.... Hope you love these as much as I do! <3

Red heaven

Red heaven

I started unpacking the Vibrant Glass Tiles and they continue to impress.  These tiles are stuck to paper face down, so you are seeing the back of the sheets when you look at them like this.... still gives you a fairly good idea...... I use the plastic containers that mushrooms are sold in at the supermarket (the large one) and a 100 tile sheet fits paper up quite nicely in these. Run some warm water on top and just submerge the tile and only leave for a few minutes.  If you do it this way, most of the glue (which...
