After doing a few practice pieces, my first real mosaic is going to be making an urn for my grandmother. She died in 2000 and my mom has been carrying her ashes around ever since in a plain, boring box. I've already found the container and I am in the process of finding some odds and ends I want to put on it.
Her favorite color was red, so that will be the color theme. I need to find some china or something with roses on them. There will be parts of crochet hooks (one of her favorite hobbies) and some other stones, etc. representing her life in Mississippi and Minnesota.
I'd really like to put a photo of her on there. I wonder if one of those clear frames that go on refrigerators would work? Obviously it'd depend on the size and thickness.
