Mosaic Pattern

This mosaic pattern explains you how to make a very simple but really lovely mosaic picture.

I just try to give you an idea with this example that you can make with pebbles.
Use any kind of motifs for this picture. I suggest to make a frame, because it improves the picture a lot.

If you collect little pebbles, then here is the best opportunity to make a use of them! If you don't have any pebbles, you can get them cheap in garden centers.

You will need:

• Colored pebbles
• Simple glue (use real mosaic glue if you don't trust the simple glue)
• A board or cardboard

1. First, draw your motif and frame on the board. If you think that you can cope without the drawing then skip it. (If the motif is more complex, then draw it)

First glue the line of the frames.	Put the pebbles on the glue and push them for a while.	When you've finished with the frame, fill the space between the frames with white pebbles.

	Put some black pebbles among the white. It'll make it more colorful.	Then make your motif as the frame before. (here it is a flower.)

Fill the blank space between the motif and the frame with black pebbles.	Congratulations! You've finished the mosaic picture!
