Stunning Mosaic Walls Featuring Bits And Pieces Of Glass
Not many residences are adorned with a mosaic wall, but for the tiny handful that are, the style has lent itself very nicely to the decor. Often instances mosaic walls are featured in a single color, but there are some that nonetheless demonstrate the style’s standard beauty, which requires nicely believed-out images and geometric shapes.
Mosaic walls are like the huge youngsters on the block, specially when compared to other wall embellishments such as decals and posters. Their sophisticated look does wonders in producing an uplifting space filled with texturized intrigue and colorful individuality. If you have ever regarded as puzzling with each other a mosaic wall for a area in your house, don’t hesitate -just do it!
Simplicity Goes A Long Way
The question comes to thoughts: Where do I set up such a wall? For starters, I’d advise the bedroom and bathroom, primarily since these rooms can be rather bland. Folks attempt not to overcrowd their bedroom with extra ornaments or added furnishings, but a mosaic wall can rectify the troubling design conundrum by giving you a taste of style along with a space-saving approach.

See how the mosaic backdrop adds a powerful power that enhances the feel of the living space above? If you had been only to have white walls with the exact same furnishings, the result would be significantly various, possibly even a small bland.

Once again, you can see the intensity the mosaic wall adds to the bathroom, turning a calm, serene space into an invigorating oasis perfect for bath time pleasure.
Aqua Blue For Various Settings
Surprisingly, aqua blue is a quite well-liked color for artists designing a mosaic wall. This selection closely resembles the rippling of water under the sun, which can be fairly mesmerizing, even if it only requires shape in the form of little glass cubes.

A Option Of Colour
I like mosaic walls for their color. There is really no right or wrong way to come about such a design technique. As long as you pick the color of your selection, there is bound to be a pot of gold waiting at the finish of your style rainbow.

The sunflower mosaic above is a beautiful creation for residences hunting to establish a warm, comforting vibe. When a effective image is accented with the right backdrop colour, correct design and style magic occurs. Above we see how a deep tone of maroon offsets the radiant floral style, creating a spectacular attitude and overall impact.

If massive flower mosaics are not your issue, maybe piecing with each other your favored quote across the wall of the room could be favorable. Let me guess yours… “carpe diem?”

Superb and Colorful Patterns
We all take pleasure in a great pattern each now and once more, especially if it is completed correct and by the hands of a talented creative genius. Right here are some praiseworthy mosaic patterns that will lure you in, if you haven’t already been swept away by it all.
by Kallista
The design and style above is meant to resemble flower petals, and if you ask me, I consider the designers did a great job in creating one thing abstractly wonderful.
Of course I usually like to save the very best for final. The selection above is almost certainly a single of my favored styles all through this post, because it ties in colour, story, and a bit of traditional taste. It’s ideal for a monochromatic home that just demands a single feature to make the complete location pop.

My Friend Katie
I want to talk about my friend, Katie. Are you listening, Kates??? She made this for me when she heard I was going to be a great-grandmother. Can you believe it? Yes, she is one of the most giving chicks I know. She will always surprise me with something in the mail for no other reason than she is just giving. She became a grandmother for the first time 2 years ago this summer to a darling little munchkin. Katie also picks the Magic Cart at WM. The Magic Cart just seems to attract little girl dresses that just seem to magically appear on the cart! I think I'm beginning to understand the Magic Cart business. ;-)

Where Bloggers Create 7/24/09
Karen over at MyDesertCottage has invited us to participate in her "Where Bloggers Create" today and since I have spent a great deal of time creating my own blogging/craft/creative spots, I opted in. Please go visit her to view all the others who are sweet enough to show us where they sit each day to do all the lovely things you see on the blogs. It's fun and exciting to look at each person's space. And it just may spur you on with ideas on how to beautify your home or just a room or a vignette within a room even.

As I've said many times before we moved 4 years ago from a 5,000 sq. ft. on a rolling hill acre house to this 1800 sq. ft. house on a sub-division lot more manageable. The move necessitated a severe cut in furnishings and space for us. BUT we do love it here. We have 4 bedrooms - master bedroom on one side of the house and the other 3 on the other side of house. Only one serves its purpose as a bedroom - ours. The other 3 are hubby's office, my craft/sewing room and a computer/home office for me, so I really have 2 rooms for such. They are small rooms however.
I've given it much thought though and creating can be several ways under the umbrella of "creative." While I love creating items by sewing, I also create by decorating my home and writing, blogging and photographing many things. I want to do it all—or at least as much as I can—before I leave this earth and I don't have many more years left to do it all. So come with me for a tour.........
We are entering the craft/sewing room from the hallway. This is what you see when approaching. There are very, very few "spaces" in my home that are not feminine, girly, romantic, froufrou or pink.

View of the whole room.
The blue school desk I've had for maybe 35 or 40 years. It's been many colors and has been blue for about 25 years now. I've been so busy with other things I've not had time to strip it and repaint it another color. The little brown vintage school desk was purchased a few months ago and has not gotten the attention it deserves but it will soon. This is where I sew. There is hardly a spot in this room that isn't taken up with something. I doubt I could squeeze one more item in. I plan on giving away some of the fabric and craft supplies to a little girl I know who loves to craft.
Shelves hold a great deal of stuff in this room.
This is where I paint. Several people, my daughter included, have told me to paint, decoupage or mosaic the top of this vintage school desk also. Nuuuuuuu, never will happen. That is the original desktop and I love it, but mainly because it is indestructible! I can wipe anything up from it—paint, Mod Podge, hot glue, anything! I did, however, put a shabby chic roses fabric on the front after I painted the sides and back. It was pretty ugly before I did that. And I got that darling little chair at TJMaxx in Boise and love the look of it also.
Can we say "shelves of fabric" here? Yep, lots of fabric but truly I've seen people with much, much more than this. Some of the shelves DO hold craft things. I plan on doing some more birdhouses and trying once again to sell them. *Sigh*...............
Trust me when I tell you THIS is looking neat for this photoshoot. Usually this room is a nightmare, including the desktop!
We are now leaving this room and traveling down the hall to my home office/computer room. I'm a computer nut! Love them.
~*~As we come out of the craft/sewing room and head down the hall to the front of the house we approach the my office/computer room.
My view upon entering the room. My daughter gave me those hanging lanterns. They are really beautiful when lit. I made a cord cover for them with some very pink toile. I love my window seat and the view out of that window onto the roses in the front yard and the street.
Also upon entering the room you will see my desk. This is the hub of our home, not the kitchen. I'd eat out 5 nights a week if we could. I'm in here most of the time. I do everything on this computer—skype and chat with kids, pay bills, blog(!), buy things on line, play at being a photographer and editor and generally conduct business. :-) BTW, that desk is a cottage style but I wanted something froufrou on the front besides the white so I velcro-ed it to the desk. When the glue wouldn't hold on the fabric I stapled it with my stapler and it's holding nicely. No one would ever know unless they got up very close to see the staples.
My view as I sit at this desk and work. That is an old wood bench we've had for about 25 years and painted it red. The paint is now flaking off and I just threw a Rachel Ashwell cover over it and a bench pillow until I decide if I want to paint it again or not. Probably not. I like it like this. The little shelves in the corner hold items I made that did not sell on ebay. Their loss. I'll probably give most of it away now.
Close up view of my desktop area. 
I bought 3 chair covers from a lady on the web and gave one to my daughter and one to another woman blogger who is a stay-at-home mom and struggling to make ends meet on a budget. She needed a lift-me-up! But this was my favorite chair cover.
My desktop is usually clean. What you see is what is usually on it except for my camera which I was using to snap this shot. The white thing on the left front corner is my JBL Creature with tiny speakers on each side of the monitor. It gives me fantastic sound when listening to music on iTunes. My monitor is an Apple Cinema Display and I run Apple OSX Leopard on it. I can't wait until Snow Leopard OS comes out next year! OSX is the most fantastic operating system there is.
Yes, this dress hangs there all the time. A friend had it and makes pillows and stuff out of old wedding gowns she collects. I got this one for a steal. My motto is "froufrou up"!
If I am selling something or just want to post a blog about it, this is where I do my photoshoot on it. This has changed over the last few years but this works just fine for me now.
This little shelf holds all my computer stuff on the top shelf and just miscellaneous items on the other two. Subject to change, of course. I have done photoshoots on this also.
A closer view of the corner of the window seat and the shelves. There is also a lot of computer paraphernalia on the top 2 shelves. My coffee filter rose is in that vase on the top. My daughter made me the mosaic old sewing drawer and I bought the hand painted one from a woman on ebay several years ago.
We now head out the door down the hallway where I have some Charles Wysocki americana limited edition art prints hanging on the walls. He is one of my favorite artists. That little shelf contains things people have given me in swaps and items I made that never sold. I guess I'm not too good at selling, huh??? ;-)
So there you have my "creating" spaces, chicks. Thank you for visiting. I now have to go check out the other participants.

Sharing the Gift
I've been looking at some beautiful art prints to buy to supplement my favorite wall in our living room and came across this one a while back by my all time favorite artist, Susan Rios. Just about all the prints on this wall are by her so it was wonderful to add to my collection. I love her art and we've been emailing back and forth. What a sense of humor this woman has. I am astounded by her beautiful paintings and showed her a picture of my wall. I think she liked it, but I would truly love to be able to paint like this little chickee. Oh my, how gorgeous is this one! It is called "Sharing the Gift" and I'd love to have a patio like this one on which to sit with lace cushions, smell the roses and dream of my garden.
This is how it looks on that wall above the biggest painting
Closer view of it.
And a little mosaic table my daughter made that I confiscated while down in California last week. It fits just perfectly there by my chair. I've been looking all over for a side table to sit in that area but wasn't able to find anything. Thank goodness I found this in her garage while down there.

If you can't forgive your hubby or wife of anything, then you don't love them enough.
Nan's Roses Mosaic Table
This vintage antique table is one I had at my house, took to my daughter in California and she did a mosaic with shabby roses tiles. It is now for sale on her website and a great price because it is gorgeous!
Beautiful Mosaic Table
When we went down to California this summer I took an old table to daughter and then brought back a table she had. Look what she did with this vintage table and her gorgeous mosaic roses tiles!! Isn't that gorgeous? It will be for sale soon I think. I'll post it back here when it's ready. Maybe I should get it back from her. Hmmmmmm, what do ya think, chicks?? After all, she'll inherit it when I die!!!! Sheeeeshhhhhhh.........
She added the final tiles today and will grout tomorrow.
Close up view of the tiles.
