Crafts: Mosaic Bird Bath
This bird bath is a standard bird bath to which I added a mosaic tile interior. The tiles were left over pieces of broken tiles from our Master Bath Remodel which I affixed to the bowl using a few odd shapes to form a small sailboat in the center. Then I used grout to finish off the bird bath which adorns a spot in our back yard. I am linking to many of these BLOG PARTIES
I'm stopping by from New Friend Friday at TGC. I love to store items in clear jars, but I hadn't thought to use a jar for the buttons from new clothes like the one shown in a post below. I'll certainly be doing this one. I'd like to invite you over to my place one day this week!
Hi, I'm stopping by from Met Monday. Your birdbath is lovely.The color and design are so attractive! The little birds will bathe in grand style. I would love to try this technique. The little birds im my area deserve a stylish bath too. Yvonne
Thanks so very much for visiting my blog! I am so new at this that I get little-girl-giddy with visitors... and I pee a little bit with a new follower!!! (You must check out my "Stache Man's Family" post in February). Your blog is so pretty and I'm now one of your loyal followers, until later...
Looks like it was a fun project. I love the color of the tile. Thank so much for being sharing all your great work at my Modern Craftswoman Monday Link Party. Rory
that is sooo pretty! what a fantastic way too use leftover tiles! now the birds get just as glamorous a bath as you! just get them some bubbles and a mimosa and they will be all set!
Your bird bath is just wonderful! My husband is talking about painting our birdbath and now I am thinking a little embellishment might just be the ticket. Thanks for the inspiration. Marla
The bird bath looks great and a wonderful use of the leftover tiles from your master bath remodel!
