Is there something you like to make/create or build??

What is it? If so, do you have any pics of it you'd like to share? Is it an expensive or cheap project/hobby?

I always loved granite pieces on tables and other places, but couldn't find what I was looking for. A few years ago I was searching for new coasters and couldn't find any I liked and started looking into making my own. The only idea I liked was using mosaic tiles, but I started thinking how big pieces would probably do what I wanted the granite to and at the same time be used as coasters. I loved the results.

The first two I made were brown and the others were a mix.. The last pic shows the one that took the most work. I designed it myself. I wasn't thinking when I bought the tile that it wouldn't fit- I figured I'd move them around a bit, but I couldn't. I ended up doing it piece by piece till I found something that fit and a style that I liked. What a pain in the a**, but in the end I think it came out the best. Pics don't even do it justice. It's an expensive hobby though 😒

@MellyMel22 🥰 it's easy with vessels or containers and adding fragrances to them makes them smell very nice

@SW-User When you can create something like that and you really enjoy them that makes it all the more worthwhile. Candles are so nice to have around. It really creates a nice atmosphere
