I found a lovely load of commemorative china at the Giant Flea Market in Shepton Mallet in January. There were three boxes full and it was great fun unpacking it - I discovered I had bought all sorts of wonderful things - it was almost like Christmas all over again. Some is far too good to break and I will sell on (apart from the things I am going to keep of course! It's fabulous to have so much to work with.
Inspired by this, and some wonderful Mexican glass tiles I am buying from the Mosaic Workshop (www.mosaic-workshop.co.uk), I am currently working on a 'monochrome' version of the 1st Class mosaics you can see on the PICTURES section of the site, in blue and white.
These tiles are opaque and slightly swirly and come in wonderful colours. I used them on the large Art Deco style box which is also on the site and still for sale. It was originally a cutlery box and could be used to store all manner of things. It would make a lovely big jewellery box; or a store for greetings cards - if you buy them as obsessively as I do! Anyway do take a look.
