How to make those damn mosaics!!
How I did it: i kind of did it without planning to. i covered a ceramic plant pot with seashells that we picked up out at the beach, and also affixed sand to it. it turned out nice and ended up being a nice sentimental piece (collected the shells on v-day, made the pots on our anniversary). i couldn't completely finish it though because the shells won't stick anymore!? i'm not sure why. i didn't finish the first day and put it all up in the outside storage, and now the glue doesn't seem to be as adhesive or dry as quickly. the only thing i can think of is that the temperature changes it experienced in that storage somehow changed the chemical structure of the glue...? i dunno, kind of a bummer. but i did enough the first day that i can put the unfinished side against a wall inconspicuously. yeah for half assing!
