      Master the age-old art form of mosaics quickly, easily, and using inexpensive materials. Transform ordinary objects into beautiful, original "objets d'art" using pieces of glass, cork and wood, ceramics, metal, wax, plastic, and paper. Breathtaking full-color photographs showcase more than three dozen spectacular projects that even beginners can create. Make a dazzling vase adorned with glass gems, a make-up box accented with bits of painted wood, a serving tray inlayed with broken tiles, a garden table decorated with a variety of pebbles, a colorful mosaic candle, a whimsical tray made with an old vinyl record, and much more. Plenty of how-to help is included and no previous technical skills are necessary. Reinvent any item using mosaic pieces and your imagination! 160 pages (all in color), 7 3/4 x 10 1/4.
