Warmest Welcome and you are invited to visit my website SimplySmashingMosaics.com for more information.
Each and every one of my mosaic pieces are exquisitely hand made from the most beautiful broken vintage china. They are fabulous for your Home and Garden décor and are guaranteed to turn heads and inspire conversation.
If you enjoy Romantic Home and Garden Décor, Cottage Style, Paris Apartment, French Country, Shabby Chic, Victorian, Eclectic, English Garden, Vintage Chic... whatever you may call the style for your unquenchable desire for lush roses and a soft palate. It is here, you will find it in my mosaics.
I am a mosaic artist that creates one-of-a-kind mosaics in Pique Assiette from antique china and mixed media such as vintage jewelry and stained glass. Pique Assiette is a French term translated as "stolen from plate." It is a folk art that has became popular again and often referred to as Shard Art, Memory ware or Broken China Mosaics.
Many of my pieces are transformed from vintage wares. I search for treasures such as chairs or occasional tables, long forgotten cake holders, old trays & charming teapots to recreate into mosaic art. Mosaics are a wonderful creative outlet and tool to transform these vintage treasures into something new and beautiful. My custom designed new mirrors and beautiful door crowns have also proven to be popular with many people owning more than one.
"Painting with china" is a phrase I have heard time and time again when my mosaics are referred to. My heart sings with this compliment.
