Oh how we should all love Goodwill! For very reasonable (or cheap!) prices, you can get would-be supplies to decorate your outdoors. Some things will take some know-how, but with imagination and ingenuity, you can create all kinds of wonderful art projects! I love the mosaic house numbers shown here in the Mosaic Art Gallery,
I decided that I wanted a nice definite border so I cut up some Orchis Iridium tiles into thirds. I glued the cut up tiles on the wood using my favorite all-purpose adhesive, DAP Kwik Seal. It cleans up with water and dries clear. Just don’t use it for weight bearing projects.
John the artist used tumbled glass to pop the inside colors of the numbers, but was careful to also build a border so it could be easily read. His results are just lovely!
