Love this image
We have a door mat printed specially since we saw this at Pompei
Thank you so much for this video! I’ll be working on my first project and have been watching dozens of videos. Yours is just what I needed.Thank you! I’m going to look through your other videos to see if you have one for outdoor mosaics.
We are working on an outdoor video (House sign), expect to post next week. Remember for outdoor you must use the correct combination of substrate, adhesive and materials rated for your climate.
@@MakeitMosaics awesome, I will be keeping an eye out for your video. I need all the help I can get. 😁
For outdoor mosaic projects, insights, look at the playlist for garden mosaics: stepping stones, flower pot, bird bath, house sign.
Hell from Greece great video hope to see meor
Welcome aboard! We have over 100 videos, thanks for watching!
Really cool, very useful methods
Glad you liked it
I would like to get started. This is very intersting. Thanks for this video.

Just starting out appreciate the guidance
Thanks for being a fan!!

Thanks for being a fan!
Bonnie. Great video. I might be nuts but I want to install a mosaic floor on my bathroom using patterns of our Plumeria, Roses and Bouganvilla for our yard. I think we can do this ourself and I am not concerned about how much time it will take. I need to research the proper tiles to use and cut and how to prepare the floor and how best to adhere the tiles.
Go for it! I do private consults and inter active on line learning, would be fun to figure out maverickmosaics.com/
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for this video, it is so helpful. I know you used glue here to attach the tiles, but could you use thinset as an adhesive (after sealing the mdf)? Thank you for your time.
Sure you could use thin-set! Thanks for being a fan.
I have your book! It is still being referred to! 💕
Yay, thank you!
Here I was, searching for suppliers for this type of tiles... Suddenly: "Cinca - Made in Portugal".
I'm from Portugal, so... 😀😀😀
Pre Covid I was scheduled to depart for your beautiful country today! Trip rescheduled for this time 2021, perhaps we can meet! Thank you for being a fan.
Good
Thanks for being a fan.
I have a question. I thought that one had to be super careful about any glue getting between the tessera or left at the sides as the grout would not stick to glue. But I see that there is always some left as you are demonstrating with the Cinca. It is very hard not to have a little excess and trying to get rid it with toothpicks etc. invariably moves a tile a bit. So, can I leave some??
Grout sticks to most adhesives, especially thin-set and Weldbond. You want to have somewhat clean spaces in between each tessera if you plan to grout. You can leave some, just want to not have any glue above the depth of the tie. Great question, thanks.
Great video! Would these be able to go in a shower as a wall mosaic?
Yes, absolutely. I am sorry I did not get back to you sooner. Somehow your question fell between the cracks. Thank you for being a fan!
I would like the book .
If you are in the USA you can get a signed copy of both of my books from my website maverickmosaics.com/workshop/books/bonnie-fitzgeralds-guide-to-mosaic-techniques/ You can also get from amazon.com Thank you for being a fan!
great video! what would need to be done for making outdoor mosaics?
Which materials would I need?
That is a very broad question, we have many videos on the channel that address outdoor projects, if you go to our playlist take a look at "garden art" , will give you some ideas. In a nutshell appropriately rated materials, substrate and adhesive for your climate. Thanks for being a fan.
Love your videos! Where can I purchase the non glazed porcelain tiles?
The ones shown in the video are from my favorite vendor: witsendmosaic.com/ceramic-porcelain/cinca-unglazed-porcelain.html
@@MakeitMosaics Thank u sooo much for your recommendation!! 😀
Are there any rules to the form or pattern of how the tile needs to be placed? Example: specific rows or patterns need to follow the figure or drawing, with spacing, rows, pattern, etc. May I lay the pieces in free form?
Absolutely you can work freeform, it is really a matter of your taste and the goal of the artwork. The concept of andamento is often referred to, that idea comes from the European tradition of mosaic making and is the same idea as what some folks call lay patterns, how we choose to lay the tiles. Have fun, look at lots of mosaics and keep creating, you will figure out what works for you. Thanks for being a fan.
@@MakeitMosaics Thank You for your reply and sharing your art, knowledge and kindness. You are an awesome teacher!
@@MariaGTexas Both of my books talk about these concepts too. Keep creating! maverickmosaics.com/mosaic-kits/
😂 I just bought this book 📕 yesterday from half price book store in our state doesn’t know you’re the writer ✍️ what is an honor to have your book
Thank you, I am honored and I hope you find the book helpful! Bonnie
I always have to spend so much time scraping the extra grout of the uneven China pieces that
I don't understand what you mean by "uneven", the tiles themselves are consistently flat. Can you elaborate? A grout haze is not uncommon, that can be removed with white vinegar. Good luck!
mis am pershiyan i love you🤩😍🤩😍🤩
How do you prepare a wooden bird house that's already painted? Thanks.
Wood can not go outside, your birdhouse would need to be decorative and be undercover at best. This video tells about sealing wood czcams.com/video/vskR7CCDsds/video.html
Can you please recommend somewhere to buy porcelain tiles?
Cinca Tikes can be purchased here as welll as Color Blocks witsendmosaic.com/
How do I create a picture when I can't draw?
Lots of options! The internet is a treasure trove from stained glass patterns to royalty-free clip art - do a Google search. Or you have a photo or some image you like, let's say a picture of a fish, trace the basic shape using tracing paper- You don't need a detailed drawing, just a guide like what Kim demonstrates in the Mosaic Table Top using Glass video. Make larger on a photo copier. Great question!
Can I use stained glass scraps?
Yes! Stained glass is a very common mosaic material and the channel has several videos about using stained glass. Mosaics are a great way you can use up that glass! Thanks for watching.

Hi 👋 I am work
DIY = Do It Yourself
Your video name says DYI.
حسنا هذا جميل ولاكن اريد معلومات عامه ليس لطريقه صنعها بل معلومات عامه عنها اين تتواجد متى صنعت من اي حضاره هي هل حضاره اليونان ام المصريين هل هي من حضاره العرب ام الامريكان
وشكرا 🌿🖤
Thanks for commenting. We'd love to respond but unfortunately can't read your comment.
@@kimwozniak5663 😅😅Ooooh, sorry, I speak my Arabic language, I love to speak it
@@kimwozniak5663 I will translate what I said above 🖤🌿
Well, this is beautiful, but I want general information, not for the way it was made, but general information about it. Where is it located? When it was made of what civilization is it from the Greek civilization or the Egyptians? Is it an Arab or foreign civilization? @@kimwozniak5663
This is my question I hope to answer him 🖤🌿
Background music is too loud. It drowns out your voice.
It's all a learning process. Thanks for watching.
