Beautiful Blue Sky

Beautiful Blue Sky Mosaic Hanging Plaque

This is a design that I first made on a bird bath, but it was crying out to go onto a wall plaque, and I got commissioned to make it into one, so here it is. Think it's come out quite well.

The Green Man Mosaic Garden Ornament Range

Another new range that I've added to my website and Etsy shop. The mini Green Man 13cm plaque, which was the first design, has been extended into a 25cm bird bath, and onto a 25cm hanging plaque too. The Green Man is proving very popular because he is a symbol of rebirth, so he's a perfect decoration for a garden, and would make a great gift for someone getting a new home, or for a gardener.

Finally got round to trying out a Green Man design, which I've been wanting to do for years, but never had the time/forgot to do it when I did have time. I think he's come out quite well. One thing I didn't want was a sinister or creepy looking face, which some green man plaques look to me. I've had the words 'cute' and 'handsome' used about mine, so, I think he's nice enough to look at. I've tried to look up what the Green Man actually is or represents. What an enigma he turns out to be. The best reason I can find, that he's ended up as a quite common garden ornament, is that he represents rebirth. And anyone who has a garden knows that feeling when things start growing again in Spring, now you can have your very own Green Man watching over the plants for you.

Currently available to order via message on Facebook, but I hope to have him listed as a made to order on my website and Etsy shop very soon.

Roses Mosaic Topiary Standard Tree Garden Plaque

The idea and the reality. I've had this idea for a while, to make some sort of mosaic topiary, and I've finally managed to try it out and I think it's worked out quite well. Very close to how I visualised it and first made a graphic to explain it on Facebook for feedback. The mosaic plaque is designed to be hung on a wall or fence, then you get to be the designer after that, making a unique display by adding your own choice of pot, filled with whatever plants and flowers you choose, and then you link the pot and plaque with a stem of your choice (I've used a cut down bamboo cane). No pests, no diseases, no pruning, and permanent full bloom roses, what's not to like?

Vintage Fabric Look Mosaic House Number

These house number mosaic plaques have been designed to look like they've got a vintage Liberty style fabric background. The mosaic is made up of small flowers, and butterflies, filled in with small leaves. The grout on the front design has then been overpainted with weatherproof paint to create a rough texture to finish the vintage fabric look.
