Mini Mosaic Florals 2 months agoI’m slowly making my way through the course and just realized that I used my gold smalti for the inside of the ceramic flowers, in the background of one of my frames. Off to plan B with either beads or stained glass from my stash!!! Sigh.

Cindy, how is it going? This can lead to a “happy accident”! Where many pivots and great ideas are unlocked. 🙂

Mini Mosaic Florals 2 months agoHi Sharra, I just opened my Mosaic flower kit today and noticed that I’m missing two items from the checklist: the plain square picture frame and the three handmade beaded wire leaves. Additionally, the two ceramic leaves were not included, but I saw your note stating that they will be shipped soon. As far as I can tell, everything else…

Hi Sharra,
I was looking through my kit again and realized that I didn’t receive the tiles or beads you use for the background. I don’t see those listed on your packing checklist, so I’m a bit confused. But don’t worry about it right now. Have a great time on your trip! It sounds like a wonderful getaway for you and your husband. We can… Read more -
HI Tracy, gosh, I’m not sure what happened with your kit missing all these items, I’m so sorry! I’m going to reach out to you by email and sort this out. I am packing current standing orders today to ship on Friday (tomorrow) before I leave on Saturday so I will have all this out to you on Friday as well!

Mini Mosaic Florals 2 months agoHere are my finished flower mosaics 😊
Some notes: My 2 ranunculus flowers are made with glass tile. I switched the thin wood frame for an EZ frame because I changed direction midway through the mosaic. I’ve got 3 more in process and I’m loving making these!

Mini Mosaic Florals 2 months agoHello – I just joined. I would like to get started with this being my first project. Where do I go for ordering and if there is a discount for members – I would take that too. For now exploring the online community. Happy to be here.

Here is a link to the floral kits https://shop.sharrafrank.com/products/new-mosaic-floral-kit
There are tools in the shop also available if you need- a Leponitt Nipper and Tweezers. I believe FLORAL30 may still work for a discount but may have expired. Feel free to…

Mini Mosaic Florals 2 months agoHere are my finished mini floral mosaics. I was thrilled with the kit materials and must admit that when I saw the many rhinestones, I thought – whatever will I do with ALL those? Well, I used the vast majority of them. I am pleased with the colors, textures, vase paper selection -WOW! And am eager to get my hands on some other glass vase…

Mini Mosaic Florals 2 months agoOh my goodness, i have fussed with painting these frames all weekend! I am not a neat painter, brush strokes are visible, paint drips, even lost a bristle from the paintbrush. Wanting to get to the “main event”, putting the bits and baubles in. Next time, i will ask my husband to do the painting for me. He is much neater than i am. “Sigh”

Do you mind me asking what kind of paint you are using?

I used Kilz to prime, then Annie Sloan chalk paint. I also experimented with Annie Sloan’s pearlescent glaze over the paint. I thought the colors I had chosen were too bright and would take away from the mosaic. Then I used Jolie Gilding wax in gold for an easier alternative to gold leaf.

Hi, Sharra:
I finished my first mini floral and i am pleased overall, but distressed over my rananculus. I was fine with it until i grouted it. After grouting i feel it is just dull. My first grout was too light. I went over it with blacker grout. (I see a spot at 3 ‘oclock that shows lighter grout. I may cover that.
What could i have done…
