Mosaic Monday: I ♥ Hyacinths



This was one of those weeks when I couldn't think of a single thing to post here. That is when colorful papers and full-to-bursting archives come in handy. :)

The hyacinths are from last Easter. I remember that they perfumed the entire house. And I think they are a particularly beautiful color. But then, at the end of February, almost any flower color looks good. :)

We do actually have a few snowdrops up in the garden now, but they need some sunny weather to open up. Maybe later in the week... :)

The tea cups with violets belonged to my mother. They are among my favorites -- so very delicate, and they remind me of a spring morning. (Can you tell I'm longing for spring?)

And the bookmark was handmade by my friend, Toni Anne. She is an incredible artist and crafter, and a constant source of inspiration to me. The purple papers, in case you are interested, are available from Florabella Collection. You can make up these mosaics in Photoshop. If there are enough people interested in learning how to make them, I might post a tutorial. Let me know... :)

Now let's have some mosaic fun! Here are the instructions:
1. Publish your Mosaic Monday post.
2. Once it is published, click on the title of the post. This will lead you to the static link for your post. The static link is the page with only that post on it. Copy the url from your browser at the top of the page.
3. Paste the url into the appropriate inlinkz box in this post.
4. Type your name in the appropriate inlinkz box in this post.
5. Click on "Enter."
6. Please link back to this Mosaic Monday post so that your readers can find other wonderful mosaics.
That's all there is to it! It's always a good idea to then check and see if your link is working. If you have any questions, feel free to email me: mrcarroll(at)optonline

And a quick reminder: if you would like to join Mosaic Monday but don't know quite where to start, there is a tutorial on mosaic-making on my sidebar. Just scroll down, and click on the small blue mosaic.
