Pink Mosaic for a Baby Girl's Room

I made this mosaic for a client whose friend recently gave birth to a baby girl and she wanted something to hang in the baby's room.

We decided on a large cross mosaic-ed in pearly pink tiles and mirrors around the name. I used lettered tiles to obviously spell out her baby's name as you can see and I used a simple white grout to finish it off.

I painted the cross a very soft pink and at the back of it I used rub on stickers to spell out her baby's name again and a little message. It makes the piece so much more personal and intimate in my opinion.

I then used 2 small hooks that you usually use for curtains, drilled that into the side and then used pink and black organza ribbon to hang it up on the wall.

This is the biggest mosaic that I've ever had to do and I'm really proud of it. Think it came out stunning (pink being my favourite colour has nothing to do with that though ;) hehe!)
