Dragonfly Modern Mosaic Wall Mirror


Dragonfly Modern Mosaic Wall Mirror

This fun modern mosaic has two of the trendiest colors of the season-turquoise and bright orange.

The dragonfly at the right corner is a Polymer Clay disk that I purchased from Peggy's Polymer Clay Creations here on Etsy.
The entire mosaic is made from different forms of glass from the orange translucent and opaque gems to the deep turquoise and lavender square tiles.

The background was made by cutting 1/2" glass tiles into triangles and grouting with a charcoal color.

The base is made of 1/2" plywood and framed using 1/4" wood strips. It was then painted black and varnished using a satin sheen.

The overall measurements are 17 1/2" x 13 1/2" with an 8" round, beveled mirror inset.Read more at handmadeartistsshop.com
