    A HUGE arts and crafts store has just opened near us. The place hasn't been open a week and i've already been in there 4 times buying more than i can afford!

    This is my first ever project, i finished it this afternoon and i'm really proud of it. C+C would be greatly appreciated :)

    I've got a cross stitch kit, two jewellery making kits and my friends birthday present to work on. So i've got plenty to do to keep me occupied :)

    Thanks Ladies! I was really happy with the star in particular, it was much more easier to grout than the moon lol

    Thank you :D yes it was part of a kit, although i had to mix up the grout and break up the mirror and tiles myself which caused my hand great pain lol

    Those are awesome! I love that stuff! I got a mosaic coaster kit, but I'm kind of scared to use it. I don't know why-haha

    hehe! Trust me there's no need to be worried, do you have to break up the tiles yourself or have they already been broken up for you? if they are already broken it makes the job so much easier [​IMG]

    They have to be broken up, but my friend showed me an easy way to do it without making a mess-to do it in a plastic bag.

    My mom works at a flooring store, they're always getting rid of displays-so I might take some of the ceramic tiles from there, too. A lot of them are really neat looking. She also has plastic-like tiles that they get rid of. They'll be hard to break, but they'll be lighter in order to make things!
