The top details. Just look at her curviness!!!
Bottom detail:
Pretty much everything came from Thrift stores or yard sales. I love the porcelain roses, don't you? they were a boquet in a bowl I got at Goodwill for $6, I think. A hammer and a flathead screwdriver, and the popped right off! So did the leaves.
Here's another project. I started this one probably 5 or 6 years ago and finished it over the weekend, and i love it! Although, I may end up selling it:
It's a mailbox! And a teapot! I love the little red birds:
And the sweet brown spout:
On this one, I ran out of my grout, and when I went to get more, all Lowes had was white. WHITE-WHITE! Definitely not the color I was looking for, so I poured in a liitle brown acrylic paint. It turned more of a muddy lavendar, which isn't such a bad thing, but, again, not what I wanted. So, I stained it! With walnut ink! It worked pretty good. What do you think?
Thanks for looking!

Tammy,
You are really good at making mosaics. That mirror is just beautiful. I tried a tray once and I didn't intend for it to look like a rooster was in the middle of it but it did when I finished. lol
