Oh they are fun, exciting and diffrent each time you make one. I am sure yours will turn out beautiful and bring you enjoyment. I have been doing mosaic's since early spring of 08. and been enjoying them alot. my biggest kick out of doing them is when friends and strangers see them its the looks on there faces that make me happy. Thats a great reward to me.
Have fun and ask lots of questions, everyone on here is so nice and wil gladly give a answer.

No I have not tried that, I will have to check it out is there a site that has some samples on them or do you do them yourself? Oh and thanks I am having a time with them, my yard is covered with the Bb's and the vases and bowls well right as of this moment there in my dining room since I have a very small back porch. But maybe soon I will find a sot for them outside.

I did the Mosiac houses, I did use a piece of bottle on one corner. I love doing them.
am in the process f doing a chursch and I got an idea for a travel trailer from one of
my bird houses, just had to make it bigger. But you really have some pretty art work

GE silcone clear can be picked up at home depot. Make sure the label says water proof. There are 2 GE Clears. I find the one thats water proof works best.

Utterly awesome!!! What are you sealing them with? I did a bowling ball, but I never sealed it. Seems to be doing OK.

I use a indoor/outdoor grout sealer by tech lab. When buying a sealer make sure the label has outdoor on it.
