This is what it was like before….
Here’s how it looks now….
There are more involved ways of creating mosaic garden pavers, involving the reverse method, casts and cement. But for a quick and easy way, just buy cheap garden slabs. Make your mosaic on mesh, sticking the pieces to the mesh using cement adhesive (thinset). When this complete, use more cement adhesive to adhere the whole piece of mesh to your slab. I actually used the cement adhesive to grout too (you can do that but you can’t stick with grout!)
As for me, five more to go (a snail, a ladybird, dragonfly, cricket, bee!).
oh wow, beautiful… I would love to do something like this one day
Have fun on your camping trip!!!!
Great job Concetta. I hope you have a blast with the family.

Just beautiful..I love that butterfly! Thanks for visiting my blog and for the sweet comment! I will be back soon to check on the other mosaic creatures! I would love to see them together in the patio!!
That is just utterly lovely… way too pretty to step on it! Ha, ha… I'd be the person that stomps over your lawn as to not touch the mosaics…
ha ha! Funny you say that, one of my students refuses to step on it!! Its very sturdy though
this is just lovely Concetta!
