One of my besties in Hot Springs invited me to go to Mosiac Madness with her and her mom Saturday. I'd never been but love mosiacing!! I mosaiced the top of a cabinet a few years back with limestone and old dishes. I was thinking I wanted to do a garden stone, but they didn't have one. I decided to make a cross for my mom. There were several different wood cutouts you could choose from. Once you picked your cutout, you had to decide what materials you were going to use. They had everything imaginable! I chose glass. I dug through two huge tubs and found lots or orange, my moms favorite color, and blue.
Once all the glass was glued down, I let it dry. We crabbed lunch at Smokin' in Style while we waited. When we got back it was ready to grout and paint the edges of the wood.
The finished product.
They had some amazing pieces on display!
I really want to make one of the razorbacks or a window.
Later that night, I stayed with a friend who was house sitting her parents' lake house. We grilled steaks and visited. Sunday morning we cruised the lake a few hours before the sun became scorching. I even tubed. Haven't done that in years and it was a blast!
This was the hottest weekend of the whole summer. Kev came home Sunday after working with severe heat exhaustion. FREAKING SCARY!!! I got him cooled down but he still can't keep any fluids down.
