The art of mosiacs is amazing and the images that can be created using tiny pieces of pottery and tiles are beautiful. I particularly love the amazing colourful pieces from europe.

In another life time, I travelled to spain and spent time in Barcelona. This city is very famous for the Gaudi Mosaics and there is an entire park devoted to these amazing sculptures and art work. Gaudi also designed many unique buildings in Barcelona and they are often adorned with his beautiful mosaic works of art.

These gorgeous creations are sooo easy to make with your kids at home. All you need are lots of coloured paper cut into a variety of shapes. You can buy coloured paper at Big W or Crazy Clarkes. The kids can cut or tear pieces to fit their design. I use glue sticks as these are much less messier than pots of glue, however you can choose what suits your little peeps best. For a while there I only let Joe use double sided tape as he used to love eating glue sticks and all sorts of glue!! Strange child he was.
Here are some examples of paper mosaic artwork I found on pinterest! I love pinterest by the way. If you have not yet discovered pinterest you need to go and check it out now!
I have put the website/blog links for all of this images, where you will find great tutorials and step by step instructions to help you and your little peeps create amazing and beautiful mosaics. Be sure to share any of your creations here or over on our facebook. We just love kids and their creations.
Have a great week lovelies and we shall see you back here next week with some exciting christmas craft and present ideas.
