Iris the Mosaic Owl

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Other

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Cute, Whimsical, Retro / Vintage


Materials

Ceramic tiles, glue, wooden board and cement grout

What was your inspiration?

I found a picure of an owl similar to this one on twitter, I think it represented an error message, but I thought she was far too cute to be an error message.

What are you most proud of?

I made this entire project in a weekend and I had never done mosaic before, it was a lot of hard work but I had an excellent teacher in Jo Thorpe.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Play around witht the shapes to create your own version of the pattern.

Laura, love your owl. I've always wanted to try mosaic after watching the movie 'One True Thing' when Renee Zellweger finishes the mosaic table that was begun by her mother, played by Meryl Streep, who has cancer. Good movie.
