Creating Mosaics with My European Touch

Hi there, most of you know me, but for the “newbees” my name is Monika of Myeuropeantouch and I am in a real funk. Because of my newly surroundings ~ well, for a year now – from a large house to a small Apartment Condo I am now restricted “because of less room and being able to close the door and leave it” of creating my handmade Mosaic Creations. For 9 years I have created these beauties and shipped all over the world.

My work also made the landfills smaller, as I used already damaged china plates, which people discard, furniture and other pieces, substrates people set on the curb

to be discarded.

The room to be messy in is just not here anymore and so my favorite past time,

creating Mosaics from cut up china plate mosaic rims and stained glass, messing with water, grout and sealer, is just not available here.

I also have 8 paws who are running around and could step into the splinters of broken glass, creating mosaic’s in my now smaller quarters.

I am multi talented and thank my creator for that, I just cant make up my mind on a new major,

you know like in college. (smile) On some creations, the market is already saturated, some other creations are only seasonal, what to do,

what to do? For me it’s a real dilemma! I just cant decide, especially since I enjoyed creating Mosaics so much and it sure is a different,

special and One of a kind creation by an Artisan like me. It kind of saddens me that I have to give it up.

I will take a break over the coming Holidays and muddle all this over in my creative

mind. Hopefully I will come up with something I can create which I will enjoy as much, will be as special and will sell.

Wouldn’t that be wonderful. Til next time….

  I have – in the mean time, Debbi, I submitted this blog a while ago and found that I can create mosaic picture frames. The wider rims or edges still work for mosaic and some fabulous rhinestone bling. So I will be mosaic-in on a smaller scale…
  What a lightbulb that was, when I saw these frames with the wider rims/edges.
  That will work. I someone wants a custom order of a larger item I will try to sneak that in…so….Happy Face here….;o)

  Beautiful work! The tiered table looks just like my mom used to have, minus the mosaics, of course.
