Modern Mosaic Art: Make Floral Compositions with Tiles

“Congratulations! You've completed this course. Thank you so much for taking part, and I hope you've enjoyed it. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the mosaic you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand-new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and make a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way and tell me if you have any doubts. This will help me guide you better if you need advice. Here are the main steps to follow: First, choose what board you will be working on. If you are using wood, make sure to prime it before sticking the tiles. If you want to be able to screw it into the wall, drill holes into the 4 corners. Then, draw out the word you chose and start to lay out and stick down your border.

Then, add in the leaves and stems around the flowers. Create your background, filling the rest of the board with tiles. Grout your project. I can't wait to see the project you come up with, so don't forget to share it in the forum. You can do so by clicking on 'Create your project'. Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to it. It would be great if you showed a picture of each step and added a brief explanation about what you have done in each one. I will be more than happy to answer any of the questions you might have along the way! I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others' work, and interact with the community. See you there!”
