  • This video accompanies the blog tutorial of the same name on MakeIt.Place. The blog goes into much more detail on the installation process and this video helps to visually show the main topics covered in the blog project. Please visit MakeIt.Place to read the blog post which includes all of the steps involved, in order, and also includes a full list of the materials used.
    Sometimes special things get broken. A special plate or beads from a favorite necklace. Why not use them to create a beautiful mosaic tile install! Is it hard to install mosaic tiles? No! Not only is it easy to learn how to install mosaic tile, it is very creative and lots of fun. And I need to tell you straight off that you DO need to commit to a project like this one. It is not a super fast project, although it can be if you are only covering a small surface. My butler's pantry countertop mosaic tiling project took some dedicated, quality time and it was worth every single minute! It came out more beautiful than I could ever have imagined. I am still in awe every time I walk by it...
    You can tackle a beautiful mosaic tile project too! All it takes is a little planning, some basic tiling materials and your amazing creativity. Plus, if you don't have materials handy right now, you get to break things!! Please visit MakeIt.Place for the full tutorial and pictures.
    Enjoy!
    Cynthia~

    I'm always finding bits of glass and ceramic and never knew what to do with what i collected, and now i do! I think i want to make a box for my cat's ashes to put his clay pawprint into as a centerpiece ❤

    WOWW at first I thought it was that stereo type beautiful pathway but this was such a cool idea. Did u cover it up with a fibre glass sheet or plain glass to avoid getting in contact with the few sharp edges ? If not u could try it out ..add lighting effect from under the glass so that the light hits downwards and not the eyes . …❤ Goa loves this culture 👏👏

      Thank you! 😊 I actually moved out of that house almost 2 years ago and I REALLY miss that art of my own creation... I need to find a place in my new house to do a new mosaic project!

  • @michellesanchez459

    Wow, this is truly a work of art. Absolutely beautiful. I love the color and how the light dances on the pieces. Thank you for being thorough and explaining your process and sharing this inspiring piece! I have several outside projects I am going to be doing mosaic on, including talavera tiles I bought for very inexpensive and I am going to be doing outside concrete stair backs to my garden with those. Any tips for outside mosaic projects, such as concrete stair read backs?

    It's very beautiful, but it's uneven, how do you use it????

    • @MakeItPlace
      @MakeItPlace  4 місяці тому

      Great question - it is definitely not a flat surface. This countertop wasn't the main countertop, or even countertop in that kitchen (I have since moved to a new State). It was the countertop in the Butler's Pantry so it wasn't used on a daily basis, or even often. It mostly came into use as a buffet table, so to speak, when we entertained. It was a great place to set up a food and/or drink station. This definitely isn't something I'd recommend doing to a daily-use countertop. But it works fabulously well for a countertop that isn't part of everyday use!

    I saw on a comment that you never want to move bc you can't take it with you...
    Sure you can!!! You might need to get a couple wall patch kits though lol but seriously, it's so personal, sentimental, was time consuming etc you definitely should TAKE IT WITH YOU! .. if you ever do leave

      Ironically I did leave... and it stayed with my beloved old 129 year old Victorian house in Chicagoland. I like to think of it as a little piece of myself that will inspire creativity in those who live in that beautiful home now and in the future. I still have leftover tiles that I want to incorporate into another mosaic project in the new house in the country :)
