| Very interesting seeing what you do Terri. The components you use work very well together. It must take a really long time to get everything to come together for a final piece. I can see how much hard work and mow much love goes into each tile.
Have you seen the backsplash that KatG had done in her home? There is a thread on here. If you haven't seen it I'll find the thread for you. You'd really like the way it's done. Definitely UNIQUE with a capital U!

| Hello dahtzu!
Thankyou, it is not very complicated but more time consuming than anything else!
The enamels are put on 1 coat at a time, then fired, it's the waiting for it to cool down
before you can work on it again that takes sooooooooooo long! Click the image for an enlarged view.
