| This is my umbrella table. It has a slot in the center for a market umbrella. I painted it light blue, but may still change the color. It was a lot of fun to make.
|
| This is one of a pair of chairs I made for our bedroom porch.
|
| This is a side table for inside or patio. I have used Talavera tile for the top. The wood has been faux painted to resemble marble.
|
| The border tiles are blue, pink and ivory and the center tiles are navy.
|
| To adjust for large gap in the edge tile, I used glass discs.
|
| This is my second table and a little more detailed. It is painted forest green and is a side table.
|
| The top is made like a frame and the cracked tiles inserted into no particular pattern. I used regular ceramic tiles with sanded pewter colored grout.
|
| This mirror is made on a plywood base, then the mirror is secured with an adhesive. A frame is place around the mirror to become a base for the tiles. I had to cut tiles for this mirror, but according to the size I used, 3x6 tiles would have fit perfect. Then the tiles were secured and grouted in place. They were then painted with permanent tile paints using Mexican designs.
|
| This mirror is made same as the one above using the 3x6 Talavera tiles.
