4.0 out of 5 stars A good book for a beginner
Provided inspiration and some useful advice for a fun project completed by my 8 year old son and me. Neither of us had ever undertaken a mosaic work before and we feel pleased with the result.

On the other hand, the egg shell ideas were interesting. To make this a great book,...

2.0 out of 5 stars I had expected a little more in ordering this book., April 5, 2000
This review is from: Mosaics Made Easy (Crafts Made Easy) (Hardcover)
Being a beginner, I had hoped and expected a little more with regards to the Introduction aspect of the book. The ideas were a little weak and presentation could have used a bit more work - I could have done without the full page templates of the daisy, the tulip and the flower pot. On the other hand, the egg shell ideas were interesting. To make this a great book, the author should have included more examples of the use of some of the types of mosaics (i.e. glass vases and the egg shells) and the author could have given me more of a "how to" feeling for getting started.

This review is from: Mosaics Made Easy (Crafts Made Easy) (Hardcover)
Provided inspiration and some useful advice for a fun project completed by my 8 year old son and me. Neither of us had ever undertaken a mosaic work before and we feel pleased with the result.

I also used Martin Cheek's book Making Mosaics: 15 stylish projects from start to finish. I felt the Cheek book cave more comprehensive advice to the novice. If you can only get one book, I would recommend Cheek, but if you are attracted to the projects in this one, you will also find it worthwhile.

Contains good traceable outlines for: a daisy, sunflower, tulip, leaf-type motifs, duck, chicken, fish, stars, shell, starfish.
