4 Ways to CreateI would definitely suggest that you use the majority of your pieces that are created specifically for mosaic art ? when you begin doing your own mosaics. This way you can learn about the actual design and the application, starting from the beginning uBut, there will come a time in your mosaic art, when mosaic tiles and glass beads from a manufacturer aren?t exactly what you need to complete your latest masterpiece. So, I?m going to share with you 4 ways that you can create your own ?custom-made? mosaic tiles and pieces for your artwork. - Do you like smashing plates? ? Hey, maybe you need a piece of ceramic or porcelain, or you might run into a beautiful pattern on the stoneware or ceramic that is going to put the crowning touch on your mosaic? If you do see something that catches your eye ? why not smash it up and create the ?new? mosaic tiles that you want. Make sure you wear your safety goggles! - Colored bottles ?

You might be out for a hike and find a nice piece of rock that has the color, the texture and the character for the mosaic you are working on right now. If you can transport the rock back home, just take your hammer and chisel and you can probably chip off a few new mosaic pieces for the finishing touch on your art. - Lose your marbles ? Sometimes something as simple as a marble can make a great piece. Marbles often have interesting color patterns in them, and if you are careful when cutting them, you can often get the colors to work in your mosaic very well. New and interesting pieces for your mosaic are probably just lying around your house, or even your yard. Just like your mosaic art, the limit to what material you can use to create a beautiful mosaic is only limited to your imagination and your vision of what each piece can create.
