Every spring I have high hopes for the exterior curb appeal of my home. Each year I try to do a little something to make things look and work better. About 2 years ago I had a “natural” patio of brick and stone placed in front of my house. Last year I found two wrought iron chairs and matching table. I painted the chairs black but the table top had warped and needed to be replaced. This year I plan to create a mosaic top for the table. I used Adobe Illustrator to create 3 designs. Not sure which to go with, as it’s my first attempt at a larger (36″ round) mosaic so I want to keep it pretty simple. Initially I wanted earth tones, but I think I prefer the bright red whimsical and abstract the most. Plus it provides creative flexibility when applying the tiles. Any thoughts?
When finished, I’ll photo the table in place on the patio and post.
I don’t know how you would do the bright red one in tiles, but then I don’t know anything about tiles either. I do love that one the most, then the pale earth colors, then the blue one. The blue seems to have a bit too many small details, but if the iron parts are really simple (no flourishes) that could be a good thing
oo the red one is nice, but will be pretty hard to tile up. I like the blue one as it has more colors, yet is still “earthy”
