I’ve got a mosaic class coming up and I’ve been searching around the internet looking for sources of information I can provide my students to expand their knowledge. I also pass alot of this information onto my readers here. Today we’re going to Mosaic Tile Guide. They have more information than you need to know about mosaics. Supplies, how-to’s, a great gallery page for inspiration…a forum where you can talk to other mosaic artists, so you can find out any answers that may crop up in your mosaic pursuits.

Today I was at a fund raiser for my good friend Leigh Adams, an extraordinary mosaic artist and saw the final piece she made for the Howeeduzzit Gallery. It was glass on glass mosaic and it also lights up. I’ll be posting a tutorial about this sign in the upcoming days. And if you have any other questions about mosaic you can always go back to Mosaic Tile Guide.

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

If you love a good wine and a stylish cheese platter, then this recycled flat wine bottle cheese board will be your new best friend. Not only does it combine two of life’s greatest pleasures, but it also gives a second life to old wine bottles, turning them into something functional and chic.

I stumbled across a similar piece at a friend’s gathering last year, and I couldn’t stop admiring it. The wine bottle was almost unrecognizable—transformed into a sleek, modern board for snacks and small bites. It’s the perfect conversation starter, and honestly, it brings a certain wow factor to any dinner party or casual gathering.

This cheese board isn’t just pretty; it’s practical too. The smooth surface is ideal for serving everything from crackers to fruit to your favorite cheeses. Plus, it’s an awesome example of recycling and upcycling, keeping those old bottles out of landfills while elevating your entertaining game.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled flat wine bottles, adding sustainability to your kitchen

  • A unique upcycled home decor item that’s also super functional

  • Ideal for wine lovers, eco-conscious hosts, or anyone who loves a good cheese board

Not only does this board make for a stylish and sustainable addition to your kitchen, but it also makes for an awesome gift for those who love eco-friendly entertaining.
