HUGE Disappointment!

NOWHERE in the description of this book does it mention that this is written SOLELY about MOSAICS made using stained glass and porcelain. It does not cover production of traditional stained glass, or offer patterns for such projects. Everything in this book is a mosaic. While it’s fair for that purpose, the sellers should make customers aware that this has nothing to do with Traditional Stained Glass.

The Stained Glass Home

THis is a very informative book and is great for a reference or to gather new ideas.

A Mosaic Book

Judging from the title and the cover image, I bought this book expecting traditional stained glass patterns. The book turned out to be a rather nice collection of mosaic patterns using stained glass as tesserae and cut shapes. The book covers various projects for use in home decorating such as wall art, serving trays, table tops and garden stones. The cover image is actually a headboard for a bed.

Awesome mosaic book

I LOVED this book. I have quite a collection of mosaic books and this is one of the better ones, with some more advanced projects. Beautiful pictures of the projects.
