Nice video, I never use a frame. I’m always experimenting but thank you for all the infos😊
Thankyou very much Marinella, frames come in handy for smaller mosaics. Thanks for commenting. 😊
Love your videos Peter. So clear and easy to understand.
Thankyou so much Robyn, so glad you're enjoying them. Thanks for being here and commenting. :)
Another useful video Peter! Your attention to details makes the difference from a nice piece of work, to one that you can be proud of sharing. A thing worth doing is worth doing well!
Thankyou so much Tonya, I try and do my best. Thanks for commenting. :)
Very educational, thanks
Thankyou so much, glad you enjoyed the video and apprecaite the comment as well. :)
Great stuff Peter! I have never actually used a frame for a mosaic before, so this is really helpful :)
Thankyou so much Kerry, l have used a number of them and find they are a very cost effective solution to create a GOG or a normal mosaic. Thanks for commenting and watching the video. 😊
Love it! Now for the follow up to see what you create!
Thanks so much Julie, I have already created it and that's next weeks video, a bit of a surprise. Thanks for watching and the comment as well. :)
Thank you.
Thankyou and appreciate the comment. :)
Thanks so much! The way you explain is very clear. If you were going to use the same frame and do a glass on glass mosaic. Would u explain what u would do? Would u use the same glass that was on the original?
Thankyou so much, I always replace the glass in the frame and use 3mm glass. I would glue it in the same way as shown in the video using the same SMX polymer. Thanks for watching and commenting. :)
Yes. Another really helpful video. In a vintage frame I had, I used a piece of coloured vintage glass from an old Australian kitchen cupboard! I notice you mentioned using a thicker piece of glass than just thin picture glass yourself but I don’t think you mentioned if you covered that glass with anything at the back - presumably because you’d be using it as GOG . Mine was China glued to glass letting the vintage goass shine as background but it was opaque - never intended as GOG . I therefore chose to use some hardboard and picture “stays” to hold the glass - in addition to gluing the glass to the recess of the frame as you did. Was that my overkill or how would you finish the back of glass backing, if not GOG? I loved what I did and have more vintage glass and frames so I’d like to do more I think. Thanks Pedro!
Thanks very much Wendy. I believe in over engineering so I am all for doing more than whats probably necessary. Your right for the GOG you wouldn't need any backing. I would use Gatorboard, Kappablock or anything thats fairly light but durable as a backing. Even thick carboard I have seen people use, as long as the glass is in there securely and cant fall out. The piece you created and the vintage frames sound fabulous. Thanks for the comment as always. :)
Very helpful! If you do not have 3ml glass, would you consider using 2 thinner pieces of glass?
Thankyou so much, I haven't done that and personally I wouldn't be doing that with glass. Just using two pieces of glass I don't think this will increase its strength unless maybe its bonded together but like I said I haven't tried it. Thanks for watching and for commenting as well. :)
Newbie here, what's the difference between grout and the glue that's used for the pieces to be glued, like gog, I mean can't you just use the glue as a grout also?
Grout is basically a filler that goes into the grout lines, it can bring the mosaic together but if the wrong colour is chosen it can have the opposite effect. Grout on its own doesn't have any adhesive properties so don't adhere anything down with it. The glue or adhesive is what holds the tesserae (mosaic pieces) and adheres them in place. Thinset (cement based adhesive) is an adhesive and depending on the project can self grouting when working with Smalti. I would suggest you have a look at my videos "Starting Out In Mosaics", here's the link. :) ruclips.net/p/PL3hbSHuG7eHQfy8Y0FN7hZIvlEK-MlErP
Thank you for your information I do stained glass and want to use the scrap pieces for mosaics instead of throwing them away
I'll be bing watching all your videos thank you
