I can see a Rainbow

Having got my lovely rainbow tiles and pendant backings on the same day, it seemed only fitting that my first jewellery attempts combined the two deliveries.

So voilà - my first ever attempt at mosaic jewellery. As with the other mosaic pieces I have made recently, it still needs to be grouted, but I am saving up to a couple of bits before I make forays into grouting - I am always worried about grout consistency so need to build up to it!

As to why my blog seems to always feature mosaics before the grouting stage, it must be because I get too excited about the nearly finished stage and have to take photos! In this case I actually need to get some grout too - of the unsanded variety as some of my gaps are quite small. I think I will have to do a mass grouting session in a week or two; it's unavoidable.

Thank you - thought it was fitting to combine the new tiles with the new pendant backs. And I've always had a soft spot for rainbows in art...
