The first was that experimental tray table. We were planning a renovation in the living room, and I decid that such a decorative item would certainly become its decoration. To be honest, I myself don’t understand how I got such an impressive result the first time, without any deep knowlge.
Then I start practicing more
Buying more expensive and high-quality materials, learning to feel them. Love for the work I do is probably force in creativity. Now I have settl on creating mosaic panels and coasters (stands for dishes, more often for glasses, Masters’ note). My main materials for work are tools (circular nippers for mosaics), glass mosaic, mosaic film, glue, grout, various sponges and bases for mosaics tables, tablets, trays, etc.
Free course How to Launch a Jewelry Brand
The course experts will discuss how to come up with an idea and test it, organize production, start selling online and offline. We paid special attention to the legal aspects of launching a jewelry brand. Did it take long to find suppliers of such goods? And where did you look for them? Long. And this process continues to this day, as there are difficulties with purchasing some materials.
Some import items have completely disappear from the market
Some have become much more expensive, and in general the range of good mosaics sometimes disappears, sometimes appears again; or it exists, but is sold in too large volumes. Therefore, there is no single store where I would buy every time. This is constant market monitoring and a kind of quest. How much do you end up spending on materials for these quests?
It’s always different
If I find something at a good price, I try to buy a large volume at once. The mosaics I currently use in my work are the best and, accordingly, the most expensive. For example, the cost of a kilogram of mosaic fluctuates between 950 and 1,500 rubles, depending on the size and shade. Naturally, one kilogram is very little, so it is us up very quickly.
