Decorating With Mosaics

Rating:
Summary: hard to recommend this one
Review: Besides being a mosaic artist, I am a collector of mosaic books (more than a dozen in all) and I can't recommend this book. Not only have you seen these projects executed in a more interesting fashion in other books, the technique (what technique?) is really poor. If you follow it, you will get poor results. Buy Cheek, Goodwin, Dierks or Biggs/Hunkin instead. They are mosaicists.

Summary: Decorating with Mosaics
Review: This book is great for the begginer such as myself. Pleanty of ideas to try, and also the start of designing something on your own. I looked at several other books on mosaics, and found them interesting , however, for the begginer and/or the craft person who dosent need to know the why's and wherefores, these other books, I found, were for the art student, or perhaps art teacher. For someone who wants to learn how to do mosaics in her/his home for the FUN of crafting, this book answered my questions, and gave me the oportunity to make some very wonderful mosaics projects! My friends are asking me to make some projects for them. What better compliment can one have! Thank you.
