A Mini Creation

I had a fascinating lesson in making stone walls and terracotta tiles in my Minimakers Club meeting yesterday. 

The technique uses paper egg cartons torn or cut into pieces and dyed.  It's easy and fast (I finished mine in 90 minutes).  I can envision making one of these with flowers and vines climbing up the stone wall.
I'm quite pleased with my finished product...for a first attempt.
  Next time I'll probably make the stones and tiles a bit smaller.

One club member made a simple little path and is going to add grass for a garden scene.

Here are some of the beautiful pieces created by the instructor.
  Now I have something to aim for!

These are really good!!! I have always wanted to try and do a table with tile and broken plates that would look something similar! What am I waiting for????
