Garden Mosaics by Emma Biggs
Decorating and designing with mosaics has been popular for centuries. Mosaic is incredibly versatile and a whole range of effects can be achieved using ceramic, vitreous glass, marble, mirror or granite tiles. This stunning book explores the use of mosaic through 19 beautiful step-by-step projects for the garden. Adorned pots, garden figurines and ornaments, a bird bath and table, wall panels and more elaborate projects such as wall panels and stepping stones are just some of the projects featured in the book. With a comprehensive chapter on materials and techniques and clear step-by-step photographs and instructions throughout, this is the perfect guide for the beginner, as well as more experienced mosaic artist.
