Yet another progress report

Work on the table top made of recycled and second-hand stuff came to a standstill, first because of vacation and then because I ran of of stuff! I've been haunting thrift shops and garage sales trying to find colored glass or pottery to fill in the background but nothing's turned up. Then I realized I had these porous stone tiles that, if I recall, I bought on a closeout price at Michaels. I discovered that these tiles took paint really well, so I've been applying color in the evenings, giving them some different shades. I think they are just what I need. I was planning to add them to the project this weekend, but it's inventory time at work so yet again, fun takes a back seat to work. However, I think things will move more quickly now that I have more stuff!
