It’s been a long time since I blogged, but the renovation work has continued. I have much to tell, not least how we had a plumbing disaster and the house got flooded! More on that later, when I reveal how we used it to our advantage.
I must update you on the mosaic! Here is how things were looking…
The next job was to painstakingly fill in some gaps. Our cat, Frankie, inspected my work thoroughly.
When I had to stop for the day, I set aside the tiles I hadn’t glued in yet, in a way that they wouldn’t lose their formation. It was so easy to drop them in next time I worked on the mosaic.
From this… to this!
Puppy approves. (She always does, as long as there’s sunshine for her to lie in!)
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt with this mosaic, it’s patience. I had NO IDEA of the time involved in such a job. This small amount was a couple of afternoon’s work: I’d say about five hours in total. Yes, I know it’s crazy, but I’m so excited with being over halfway there…
This is DEFINITELY a labour of love!
