Synopsis: Mixed Media Meets Mosaics

If you think only "ceramic tile" when you think "mosaic," think again - and prepare for Tiles Gone Wild to open your mind to a world of mixed-media possibilities! In this follow-up to the best-selling Wild Tiles, mosaic artist Chrissie Grace offers up twenty new projects featuring unexpected materials - from paper to bottle caps, stained glass to handmade clay tiles - combined in her trademark whimsical style.

Take a walk on the wild side as step-by-step instructions teach you how to:

   • Tile on unusual surfaces like PVC pipes and brick pavers.
   • Customize your work by using photo editing software to design tile portraits.
   • Create fun and functional pieces for your home, as well as funky display pieces for your patio or garden.
   • Combine mosaic and mixed-media techniques to take your creations to a whole new level.


Let Tiles Gone Wild inspire you to try a fresh approach to mosaics - and let your creativity run wild!
