A book full of possibilities... more than 300 photographs of intricate designs from around the world. (Lee Stratton Columbus Dispatch )

Pebble Mosaic Book
The Art of Pebble Mosaics
"Of the three books I bought on pebble mosaics this one was the best. There is a history of "floor" mosaics, a detailed discussion, with drawings, of the shape and placement of stones, a lesson on drawing designs to scale, site excavation and preparation. The two step by step projects, a "threshold" mosaic and a dining patio, are both beautiful and do-able. The mosaic on the cover is so complex I wondered if this book would be too advanced for a beginner, it turned out to be very clear and understandable. I'm off to the river to pick some stones!" ~ by Diane2957
