Polka dot kitchen pic!

I finally got a picture of the polka dot kitchen that I made for my client in Texas! It was all done through the mail: He mailed me an idea of what he wanted and gave me measurements and then I made all the circle tiles and glued them to mesh and mailed them off to him. I'm so glad it turned out. How fun! I love polka-dots

It all starts with an idea...Circle Tile Backsplash!

My client called me from Texas and said he wanted a polka dotted circle tile backsplash. He gave me the color ideas and I came up with this sample board:
Then we signed a contract and off I go, glazin' dots like I do...

Then I glue them to fiberglass mesh in panels and the backsplash starts to take shape!

I can only hope he sends me pictures of the finished job after it's installed. I'm going to be shipping these babies away for good (sniff, sob) But what a cool kitchen he'll have!

3 days later...Rainbow Trout complete!

Okay, so they were non-consecutive days. First I got sick, then Sarah got sick...anyway, not important. What matters is the fish. She/he is done and ready to be put on display at the Universal Precast Example Garden. Let me know if you need one for your garden! Yes, they can be any color and yes, they're heavy. They've got a whole school of 'em up there ready to be tiled (nudge nudge, wink wink)!

Making hundreds of tiny dot tiles by hand

I'm not normally the kind of person to be overwhelmed by a project's size. But making most of the tiles by hand? I'm starting to go a little crazy here.
