The instructions in this book are excellent. I wanted to try various types of mosaics and purchased several books. This book gave me the confidence to complete my first projects. Now I have some wonderful homemade gifts to give at Christmas.
fantastic!

Connie Sheerin's book provides us with clear, concise instructions to create imaginative projects! Her bathroom backsplashes are really so special and she has a wonderful sense of color and pattern. For anyone interested in the art of mosaic, this book is the one to buy.
An excellent book for beginners or more experienced crafters

I loved this book because it made the projects seem very possible to do for someone like me who has just started learning to make things with mosaic tiles. The book is fun to read and the pictures give the reader lots of ideas for other projects. Ms. Sheerin has done a wonderful job of making mosaics appealing and not daunting.
What Fun!

I read "Mosaics in an Afternoon" from cover to cover and was delighted! The writing is engaging and the directions for the projects clear. I loved Connie's description of her first mosaic project in macaroni! The true test of course, is using the book. Using the instructions on page 24 for the "direct method", I completed a mosaic picture frame and found it easy for me, a relative beginner. Now I'm anxious to get to garage sales & estate sales to find old dishes to smash and 'ugly' items to embellish!
A must for all who enjoy mosaics or who want to learn how.

"Mosaics in an Afternoon" is a wonderful book for anyone who enjoys doing or even just looking at mosaics. Ms. Sheerin's text is of comfort to the novice; but is not condescending to the expert. Clear and concise, it leads the reader through all the steps. The accompanying photographs add greatly to the learning process. I can't wait to begin my first big project, and thanks to Connie Sheerin, it will be far less daunting!
