It's Been a While…
Yes, I know — it’s been years since my last post! But I’ve finally got something exciting to share. I made good progress on the project combining two of my great loves: old china and garden art.
Turning Smashed Vintage China into a Garden Mosaic
Never throw away those broken beauties! After a lifetime of collecting chipped and shattered china, I’ve found the perfect way to give them new life — transforming them into a beautiful mosaic wall for the garden.
Here’s how I’ve been doing it so far:
Prep the Wall – Chip off any old paint, then coat the surface with a “slushy” mix of cement and bonding liquid.
Start Sticking – Arrange and glue your broken china pieces onto the wall.
Grout – Once it’s all set, apply waterproof grout to seal the design.
Smooth the Surface – Grind or sand off any sharp edges for a clean finish.
