Here I go again…digging through the internets looking for tutorials to share with all of you. And I dug deeper this time. First I ask Mr. Google…then I go to page 10…digging deeper and I found a portal through HGTV to find Suzy’s Artsy Craftsy Sitcom and this fab tutorial. She builds a letter out of cardboard and then attaches glass and grout…voila…a monogram mosaic. Very cool. You can make words or just letters. Whatever inspires you. What’s cool is that she paints the letter after she’s done creating it and uses matching color “sea glass” which brings out the color of the glass. Now if you can find pre-made letters you can always go that route. Suzy says she’s a bit of a cheapskate so she’s making it herself. Also, she did get her glass at a $1 store. Who knew? Looks like a great project…
