Mosaic Mirror
Mosaics are so fun to make and Polymer Clay makes them super easy to create.

Mosaic Mirror

What You'll Need:
Polymer Clay, any strength: SculpeyIII, Premo, Fimo, Fimo Soft
Pasta Machine for making clay sheets
Plywood
Mirror Tile and Glass Cutter, if necessary
Elmer's Wood Glue
Pre-mixed Grout
How To Make It:
1. Paint back and sides of plywood (I like to use black).

2. Make mosaics by running clay through a pasta machine to make a thin, even sheet. Bake and cut into squares or shapes while still warm.

3. Glue mirror onto plywood.

4. Working in sections, lay a thin coat of glue onto the plywood and begin pressing your mosaic tiles down, leaving space for grout.

5. When done, cover piece with grout (you can be messy, because you'll then wipe off the excess with a damp cloth)

6. Add a couple screws onto the back for attaching hanging wire and voila, you're done!
