I use to make my rounds there on a regular basis and pick up the odds and ends. I had them stacked up and have been using the broken ones for outdoor mosaic projects with the thought that I would use the unbroken ones to tile my patio. The time has finally come to work on the patio and I started last weekend.
It is taking me much longer than I thought it would as I am trying to make some sort of pattern out of it. I am trying to match the size of the tile for rows and let the colors land where they land. I will mosaic the transition areas with broken tiles. Also, drew circles and half circles on the patio and I will do some sort of mosaic in those areas. Thought I would share and will show another picture when finished…
