Mosaic lamp for the garden

Anleitung No. 1644
Anleitung No. 1644   

This is how beautiful a Acrylic ball converted into a garden lamp using mosaic technology can look! We are pleased to present you here the winning idea of our VBS Summer craft competition 2018 4th place.

Our winner Marion72 made the big garden lamp with dark Joint Filler and Tiffany glass

We recommend you to use cheaper Acrylic mosaic from our assortment for the rebuilding. This can even be cut into shape and is available in different colour assortments

The lamp is a large Acrylic ball in 20 to 29 cm Ø size. With a pair of pliers the suspension eye of the ball is broken off and with hot glue a hole is made for the cable of Fairy lights burnt in.

First, place the different mosaic patterns from the little stones in front of you on the table. Once you are satisfied with the arrangement, glue the tiles with transparent mosaic glue one by one in the pattern you have created on Acrylic ball.

In this way, cover the entire Acrylic ball with the colored mosaic tiles. Before gluing them together, place your light chain or lamp already in the ball and make sure that the hole for the cable of the light chain remains free when designing.
Now choose your Joint Filler. The classic bright Joint Filler is first mixed with the Mixing cup and with water according to product instructions and then "washed" onto the Stone-surface: with a sponge the mass is wiped evenly onto the ball, distributed in the spaces between the mosaic surface, then with a damp sponge excess mass is wiped off the transparent stones.

Alternatively you can use transparent mosaic joint filler. This can be applied directly from the liner, formed and spread, precise work is possible. It dries out like glass and is weatherproof after 4 - 6 hours.

A wooden ring now serves as a support for the lamp. This ring can be painted to match the mosaic as desired. Glue the stanchion to the ball in such a way that the light chain cable protrudes next to the ring - your own designer lamp is ready.
