Mosaic Is Complete and Installed!!!!

What a journey!!!!
The day finally came this monday!!! We installed the mosaic at the Upland Kingdom Hall.
This could not have been accomplished without all of the volunteers that came and worked tirelessly on this project.
What a process! First we layed out the picture....
Then, we started cutting glass in various shapes and sizes....
This took many months to lay out and perfect until we were happy with the complete design.
Many friends came from long distances to have a part of the project. There were also friends that came and fed all of us volunteers.
Everyone who had a part was very important to this project, there were cutters, cleaners, artists, those who gave funds and materials, installers and photographers....It was truly a joint effort!

Yes what a journey!!!!
We cut glass, placed it, taped it, flipped it over, glued mesh on it, flipped over again, set it, transported it, installed it and grouted it!!!!!
This process started the third week in June 2014
 and
 was completed the third week of October 2014.
Not too bad for the first time ever doing this!!!!

All with a lot of prayer and with Jehovah' direction no doubt!

This is the picture that we used as our guide.
The mosaic is not exactly like this picture, it is an interpretation of this picture.
So we put our own spin on this photo. 

It has been a long exhausting journey but I am
 so proud of the beautiful result of all of our hard work.

We are also commissioned to complete another mosaic for this Kingdom Hall
Hmm....
I will keep you posted on the next adventure.....
