Extra Large Terra Cotta Planter - Broken China Mosaic
This is an extra large planter which stands about 14 inches tall which I cover in broken china mosaic. A favorite pattern, I create 4 vignettes of trees in the four seasons. While I have made several of these pots, they are all a little bit different and unique. I adhere the china, grout and seal the pieces. They are weather-safe, but planters really cannot withstand freezing safely and should be brought indoors or under cover.

Vintage Butterfly Mosaics
I make broken china mosaics from loved and vintage china dishes. If you have broken a special piece, I can make it into a new form that you will enjoy for years to come. I also have a large selection of china that I have collected in various colors and patterns to create your dream piece. I have over 10 years experience making mosaics that are functional or art pieces, for indoor or outdoor use. I also have a selection of pieces already made for purchase or inspiration.
I also do installations and public art. You can see my work at the Conrad Hilton in Washington DC or at Mercy Hospital in Joplin, Missouri.
