Merry Christmas to all!!!! We had an awesome day..we went Jerrys parents (Randy and Linda) early afternoon had some fun there and then finished up by having dinner at my Moms.

Sorry It took so long to update but I couldn't update until after Christmas because the Rooster picture was a gift. Jerry made the frame with a honey blonde finish and I did the mosaic. I will have to admit Jerry cut and glued quite a bit of the background for me, which is honestly the part that takes the longest. I as usual stressed over the grout color, and we (Jer and I) finally decided on the brown which we custom mixed. (white grout w/ liquid brown color added bit by bit) Jerry also helped me with the grouting and cleaning of the grout. He has become my right hand in this whole process!!!! Couldn't do it without him.

After I got the Rooster picture done I got a case of the "I need to do something else" syndrome and made this "Man and beast" mirror mosaic in one afternoon on a rock. When I need a quick mosaic fix these work well ( the rocks) you mosaic one day grout the next. The mirror tile is a dusty rose color w/ a grey grout.

If you have been on Mitchells blog you would have seen the mosaic Ipod I did for Mitchell...that was pretty fun..it also was a quick fix project.

Everyone have a wonderful and safe new year.....I loved all my presents...and the company!!!!

Many blessings...
