Hello Julie, what a great source of information, so glad to have found you! Our retirement community in Texas is in the start-up phase of an art installation at one of the community activity centers. The plan in motion is to create a garden wall using cinder blocks. It sounds very ambitious, I know, especially for someone like myself whose never done mosaics in my life, but always wanted to try. We are using what our leader calls all the whoops!! from our clay studio, that members have donated to the cause. Right now we have about 25 boxes of ceramics (thats been collected over the last 7 months or so), then we'll probably make little additional pieces to go with to finish the block off. I was thinking of making like a center slab of clay, leaving a generous border around the block (to be filled in with the whoops pieces). Then making a design on my slab, cutting out the pieces, firing and glazing. Just maybe one or two if this goes as planned. Any thoughts on this idea of mine, or tips, tricks you might offer our group would be fab and most appreciated!! Thanks for reading!!!

Hi Lisa! WOW what a project! It sounds wonderful. I like the idea of reusing what you have. I don’t know how big your wall is, but if you need more material to cover the wall one idea would be to allow each member of your clay studio to paint a tile. These tiles could surround the focal point in the middle of the wall. Have fun with it! Keep creating and I’m thankful you’re here.🔥

Thanks for the video. I could use greater explanation of tiling the sides vs not; (I know in the video, you speak of wanting more top surface for your design? To me that does not give me reason to want to tile the sides? I didn't get the sense behind that explanation?) I found that aspect unusual, surprising, although I am just beginning concrete art. But my gut reaction is that this added step/ feature gives pause, because my view is that a stepping stone would recess into the ground/ sink with time? It gives concern- wouldn't that cause issues? & It seems like unneeded work/ time/ materials?

Hello Julie, here I am with a question about birdbaths - I haven't seen any of your videos on this, anyhow, here goes. Over 20+ years ago, my Mum gave me a birdbath as a gift - a cat knocked it over and the bowl broke into several pieces (cat escaped) on gluing dish back together, there is an uneven piece, before setting mosaic tiles, can I build this up with extra Grout? I will seal the bowl with terracotta sealer - do I need a special adhesive to set the tile pieces and also will waterproof Grout do the job? I hope to hear back from you. Thanking you in advance.

Hi Sally! I'm not a concrete expert, but from my experience of having a driveway done, I can tell you in no way did they put sand down before truck after truck poured concrete. We didn't have scoria though, we had coral rock. I would consult a cement professional in your area to be sure. As for your tiling process, you could certainly adhere tiles while the cement is wet, but a better way would be to wait until the cement fully cures, and then tile and grout the mosaic. You could tile on mosaic mesh if you like and then transfer it outdoors. Here's a video on how to use mesh in your mosaic work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWWQf5ugmK2spsk.

@JulieWeilbacher
@JulieWeilbacher 2 жыл бұрын
Hi MzGamerGurl! Welcome to the world of mosaic! You can certainly use glass in outdoor mosaic projects but you need to be careful. For instance, sometimes stained glass can crack over time when outdoors. So sealing your grout/thinset once your project is done is a great way to help protect your piece. Also, larger pieces of stained glass might be more prone to cracking especially if kept in direct sunlight (they get really hot), but not always. For the adhesive, you can stick with the fortified thinset. It's your best (in my opinion!) only option for outdoor mosaic pieces like this. Keep creating and I'm glad you're here!🔥

Thank you Julie for your terrific videos. I would like to do a mosaic on an outdoor vertical wall so using a mesh seems the better option. Thing is the wall has stucco and several layers of latex paint. There is no way i can remove the paint chemically, and sandblasting the patio area is too messy. I was thinking of simply using a hammer to remove some of the paint and expose the wall partially to make some adherence. Do you think this would work? If so what material should i use to affix the mesh to the partially painted wall please? Should i use a lath and mechanically secure it to the wall? Your help would be appreciated.

Hi xpondr! Thanks for your kind words. Great to hear you're enjoying my videos. Wow, you've got a fun project planned! It's best to adhere your mesh mosaic to the unpainted wall using fortified thinset. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥

Hii Julie - I haven't seen anything on using wood when making a mosaic stepping stone, but I went ahead and used some small, wooden, letter blocks (like Scrabble w/out numbers) on 3 stones I made as gifts. I sprayed all of them with several coats of a wood sealant prior to grouting the whole piece. Unfortunately, I messed up a couple of the letters on one of them when I was polishing, and now I need to figure out how to fix. Too late to rip them all out and replace with ceramic so before I seal the grout to finish, any ideas what I can do? My last resort would be to put them in plastic cases, but before I do, I thought maybe you could help. And is wood never to be used in outside mosaics? Thanks!

Hi Linda! Oh bummer....yeah, wood is not an acceptable material (or substrate) for outdoor mosaics. Can you fix the letters by repainting them? And then once dry, I would seal them with a few coats of wood sealer, and then cover them with painter's tape before applying grout sealer. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥
