(Mosaic Diamond Jubilee Vase)

When I bought the two plates I used in this mosaic, one had a crack

and one had a chip. But they were both

VERY inexpensive, so I purchased them anyway.

The Prince Charles cup was perfect, and I loved it,

but once when dusting I knocked it off its cup hook and it broke.

I couldn't bring myself to toss it and have kept it

for a good few years.

Finally........ something to do with them all.

I just have to say......doing mosaic isn't as easy as you might think,

poor Queen, as my pieces slid around on the crock, her face got larger

and larger grooves in it.

And frankly , after looking at her up close and personal

for a few hours, in my opinion

 she was quite a beauty in her youth.

If I was in her area, I would most definately

have signed up for a mosaic class from

Rebecca.

I am sure that would have made the process much easier!

And my results much better!!

Jubilee pitcher, I posted about them
