Although more-experienced mosaicists will want to look elsewhere, Decorating with Mosaics offers a decent introduction to the craft. Clear color photos illustrate every step of the directions, as well as the finished product. Utilizing shards of china and ceramic tiles with the occasional array of seashells or terra cotta, projects include bowls, plates, flowerpots, boxes, a small table, a birdbath, and a bathroom backsplash. The designs are not exceptional nor are the colors especially exciting, but the presentation is less intimidating than more-advanced guides and should prove helpful to the novice. --Amy Handy
