Delphinium Reflections Bird Bath

Delphinium Reflections Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

The idea of the mosaic design in this bird bath was having a spike of mixed delphinium blooms and the mini butterflies flitting around them as if they are being reflected in the water of the bird bath. The blue butterflies are iridescent and the plum butterflies are transparent to add interest and depth to the design. Each delphinium flower has a mini white daisy with a lilac centre in it's centre.

Mosaic Bumblebee with Olive Frame
























I've decided to add a bit more home decor to my range so I've created two mosaic bumblebees in hand painted frames. The frames have a lovely muted olive green slightly distressed finish. The bees have iridescent wings that shine with metallic gold and magenta, and they are surrounded by two shades of sky blue tiles. I really like the proportion of frame to mosaic, and the distressing and subtle colours give a lovely finished look to them.

Linear Shoreline Mosaic Garden Bird Bath





Linear Shoreline Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

My latest range of bird baths is called Linear. This is the first design in the range and it's named Shoreline. It uses the colours you'd find by the shore and includes, sky blues, sea greens, and sandy browns. The pattern line colours are randomly placed and some include translucent tiles to represent seaglass, and stone pebbles which add depth and interest to the design. I've used terracotta tiles on the border to blend in with the saucer and focus the eye on the base.
