The Complete Pebble Mosaic Handbook Paperback – Illustrated, 1 Mar. 2016

Nice detail

As a complete beginner I chose this book to inspire and teach me how to acheive a pebble mosaic. The various techniques are clearly explained so that the best method can be chosen. The photography is superb and the artistic insight into how the best can be acheived marks this artist-author as the top of the field. The design ideas are beyond any expectations I might have had. What is unexpected is the desire now to seek out the work described on a tour of Britain and to incorporate something more beautiful than I had previously imagined in my own garden spaces. Being hardback it is lovely to hold and use. Nothing less would do.If you only read one pebble mosaic book this is the one.

lovely bookBook is really interesting and great illustrations.

I gave this book as a present and my mother-in-law liked it a lot, found it interesting with nice pics :)

Great book for a pebble diy projact

Even though I'm not really into pepple mosaic I found this book great! For me it contained ideas and inspiration for ordinary mosaics. I think I like the style of pebble mosaic and I defenitely like the style Maggy Howarth picks, even though her book contains a wide range of motifs. Ther book is divided to 3 parts: the first is core technique where she thoroughly describes techniqes wit examples. Second is a chapter with pepple mosaics around the world, both classical and contemporary. Third is a long chapter with splendid photos (well the whole book contains splendid photos) for inspiration. I ca ndefintely recommend this book!

Just a quick comment - I've seen other pebble mosaic books and this really does seem like the bible. Other people I know who've actually made mosaics (rather than drooled at the pictures like me) say the same. Probably not worth looking elsewhere - just get this; she really knows her stuff.

Lots of lovely examples, from near and far, incorporating a variety of styles. Good practical tips for getting started - now all I have to do is find the pebbles!
