Micro Mosaics
Author(s): Angie Weston
This is a stunning collection of jewellery and accessory projects, all handmade using delicate mini mosaic tiles and beautiful millefiore glass beads. It is ideal for crafters who enjoy mosaics but want to create small, portable items that can be given as gifts. Pretty projects include matching earrings and necklaces, bangles, hair accessories, rings, key rings, luggage labels and jewellery storage ideas. The pieces make use of new super light-weight resin tiles that can be cut with household scissors but have the look of sparkling glass tiles - perfect for creating intricate-looking accessories with the minimum of fuss. Step-by-step instructions and colour photography throughout make "Micro Mosaics" suitable for beginners and more experienced mosaic-makers alike.
