Yesterday, my Mom and I had a great time crafting and making some wonderful mosaic garden stepping stones. This is a fast and easy project that appeals to my desire for instant gratification. There are basically only four steps; mix the cement/concrete with water to the consistancy of a thick brownie mix, pour into a mold and smooth, design your mosaic, and allow to dry for about 48 hours. We used broken glass pieces, glass gems, and small mirrors as our medium but you can also use tiles, shells, beads, whatever is pleasing to your aesthetic. After Fathers Day breakfast this morning we presented our garden stones to Dad who was very pleased and excited at the prospect of doing a bigger mosaic project. We are thinking bird bath, fountain, maybe even a garden wall.
Hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather and happy Fathers Day to all you Dads out there!
