In this video Julie Weilbacher demonstrates how to mosaic a flower pot using broken plates, mugs, and bowls. Video topics/demonstrations include: how to select an ideal size flower pot, acceptable materials, optimal-size pieces for a curved surface, cutting ceramic with hand tools, adhesive, and how to adhere pieces to the substrate.
Mosaic art outdoors and in the garden works well because of the variety of suitable materials, substrates, and adhesives used. A bright pop of color on the patio, a walkway, or in a garden bed is like a treat for the eyes.
As always, LOTS of tips and tricks throughout the video. This is part 1 in a two-part series.
