A Mosaic Christmas (Part 3)


Red & White Folk Style Mosaic Bauble
 
Red & White Folk Style Mosaic Bauble


The final set in my mosaic bauble range are these Red & White Folk Style. Using the same design as I used on my mosaic mirror, I've handpainted tiles with hearts and flowers to form a band around the centre of the ornament. Then the handpainted solid raspberry red tiles are used to fill the rest of the bauble. The mosaic is finished with white grout to keep the red and white look.

This bauble would be suitable for exterior use as all the materials used are weatherproof.

Fiesta Mosaic Christmas Bauble Decoration



The next two sets of baubles in my mosaic decoration range have been listed. The first ones are using the colours I've used before, and I call the pallete Fiesta. The colours are all handpainted onto the tiles using combinations of magenta, red, orange, and gold.











 


Peacock Mosaic Christmas Bauble Decoration



The second set I've called Peacock, because the palette I've used remind me of the colours you'd find in a peacock feather - blue, green, turquoise, aqua, and copper. Some of the tiles are handpainted to give me the shades that I wanted.

Both of the sets of baubles are finished in grey grout. and both sets are suitable for interior or exterior use. In fact, they don't have to just be used for the festive season. These baubles would look great in the garden all year round. Either hanging up, or as a collection in a bowl on a table.

A Mosaic Christmas (Part 1)


Mosaic Stained Glass Look Christmas Baubles


Mosaic Stained Glass Effect Christmas Ornament
 I've been re-inspired to make some more mosaic Christmas ornaments. This is the first batch of finished ones. My Mosaic Stained Glass Look Christmas Decorations. The tiles are a combination of plain colour, and handpainted layers to give me the exact combinations I wanted. The colours used in the baubles are red, magenta, green, blue, turquoise, orange, yellow with a transluscent gold glaze, and a totally gold tile colour. The grout has been overpainted with black paint to show the tile colours off, and to give the stained glass look. Perfect for Christmas.

These Christmas ornaments can used indoors or outside in the garden, as all the materials used are weatherproof.
