Mosaic Bowling Ball
by
Marla Rafuse
I really like mosaic furniture but wanted to try and make something on my own that wasn't too big, so I picked up a small bowling ball at the local thrift shop and made this one. I bought some old china saucers and shattered them with a hammer (very carefully) under a towel. I followed the tutorials online to put it all together. It's far from being perfectly round and smooth but I like it that way. :)

I love it! I'm working on one with more brilliant colors. I'm still looking for an outdoor waterproof grouting. I've got the bottom done & waiting for it to dry. Tomorrow I will flip it over and complete the top. I'm also going to do one using buttons. I've got sooo many and it will be so much fun! Anyways, I wanted to let you know that I really like your ball. I have done several penny balls and cemented a steel rod in the large hole so I can secure in the ground. Mine all are outside balls.
