    Hello there,
    Here's what I did during the short winter days before the holidays.
    The cross is for my mom. She asked for one :)

    Those are lovely, and show quite a bit of artistic talent! Do you use glass or tile?
    I tried glass mosaic once, but unfortunately my "project" turned out looking like someone dropped a multi-colored vase! I admire your ability.

    Very pretty designs. Does the 'S' stand for anything in the split design mosiac?

    yes. vitreous glass mainly, with some marbles and some smalto pieces.
    the S doesn't stand for anything. just happened to look like an S.
