Someone's trash is someone's mosaic treasure.

Before you toss that broken china cup, old plate or crazed bowl....that chipped coffee mug...think of mosaic addicts world-wide.

Contact Sandy or join the OzMosaics Diva Forum or Mosaics Addict Group to find where you can donate the tesserae.

Old jewellery, shoes, pots, vases, tables, chairs, bed heads, computers, fridges, bags, dressmaker dummies, mugs, chests, wardrobes, bbq, wheelbarrows, cars, buses, combies, utes, hall stands, speaker boxes, art frames, boxes, cabinets, hubcaps, wheels, bottles, light shades, desk, counters, vanities, gates, windows, doors, pavers, teapots, frypans, skillets, woks, toasters, jugs, mirrors....almost anything can be surface decorated with mosaic art.

So come on get arty, get crafty or pass on the stash to OzMosaics.

Reuse, Recycle....save the environment but mostly give a mosaic addict a wonderful fix!

Probably you will become addicted too....see the therapy centre - we do offer complete support and care...from stained fingers to over-excitement.  It's wonderful!

If you are invited or happen to be passing the Trash and Treasure stall held every now and then at OzMosaics (join up for invites) you will need to wear comfy shoes, bring a water bottle, practice your elbow jogging techniques and perhaps be prepared to be quite unladylike!  Bring a muscley guy to carry your stuff.  Even the sweetest old lady can get very mean if she wants that yellow mug!  Bring change and a requirement of attendance is to toss a coin in the Mosaic Dunny for the Starlight Children's Foundation.  All money tossed in the dunny raises go to the Mater Children's hospital "Grant a wish program" through MAANZ.  Sandy will haggle you for your small change - it's a given.  Be early too!  Bring chocolate and Sandy might, just might, put some things aside for you.

There is therapy available for mosaic addicts who become a little over-excited and euphoric.

Iced water, a visit to Zone 4 and a nice cup of tea usually calms one down after all the excitement.  Remember ladies, it is about caring and SHARING (.....um, yes, I said that...I know....I have the stash room under lock and key.....More therapy is needed on the Diva Couch...I think it's a lost cause.).
