| And you did a fabulous job too. It's quite unique - never saw one quite like it. Love the TG/mottled background and the ball chain. That ball chain has changed the look of mosaics lately. Beautiful job, NT. BTW - hur husband has come a looooooooong way, huh? I've seen several husbands change their minds, once they saw the quality of the wife's work. |

| ooh yeah, for him to let anything be hung on the house much less my art - he's really supportive compared to when I 1st started. lol - you should have seen his face when I handed him the check I got for teaching a one day mo class. Leading up to it, he was hemming and hawing over the expenditures and didn't seem to understand that I was selling those items! It was a nice chunk of change! |

| So polished and professional looking; I love it! |

| I learned mosaic here on this forum. I've since taken a mosaic portrait workshop by Carol Shelkin http://www.carolshelkinmosaics.com/ and a workshop with Susan Crocenzi on polymer clay and TG http://scmosaics.com/home.html oh wait DUH! you mean when did I teach one? lol Just at a local art school/ studio asked me http://mullanyartstudios.wordpress.com/studio-classes/new-winter-2013- classes-and-workshops-for-adults/ it was apparently good enough that all the students want to do it again and more ppl are inquiring so might go again in April or May |

| Wow, gorgeous! I like how you didn't just do numbers on a rectangle (like I would have, LOL). This is way more interesting and stylish. Great job! |

| VERY NICE!!! I have a converted hubby too! ;-) Congrats again on the workshop stuff! We have a burl with house numbers out front and it is very sad looking these days and I have already gotten the go ahead from hubby to redo an address sign, just gotta get going on my To Do List!!! I really like the big numbers you did! |

| That is beautiful. What is the ball chain border? How is it applied? It give a very finished look to your project. |
