~Mosaic Cross~
This is a huge hobby of mine. I will be posting a log of pictures of mosaics I have done in the past. I began this about 3 or 4 years ago. I was TERRIBLE the first couple of times I did it but I caught onto it really fast. My main items I sell are the crosses. I use very very fine china usually with 3-D items in the center. As this one has antique ceramic roses in the center. This cross actually belongs to my Nana. I have made crosses, trays, tables, birdhouses and birdhouse chapels and quite a few other things. As I work on these mosaics, I think of our brokenness that we all experience in our lives. Just as these fine pieces of china were broken to make something DIFFERENT yet BEAUTIFUL, God does the same things in our lives. He uses all of our broken pieces in our lives to make something DIFFERENT yet BEAUTIFUL. We may not be able to see it yet. But he is at work!
ABOVE: This is just a close up of the center of the cross. The roses have a little moss around them to fill in the holes. This is one of my favorite crosses I have done. I am not currently making mosaic items but I will be in the future. I will definately keep you posted!
