• What Do We Have to Share?

    Bring beauty and inspiration into the home, garden or office with art from Defining Designs. As a web designer, I found myself being inspired by mosaic art and the vision that could be conveyed simply by re-cycling materials and bringing them back to life. The way someone decorates, the colors they use, the style, etc. all define who we are and what makes us so different. At Defining Designs we design custom art that defines who you are by using your favorite colors, a broken piece of china that has a sentimental value, shells you found on your favorite trip, etc. We want to create art that will make you smile and feel at home yet be a conversation piece for years to come. Rather than fill our landfills, give purpose to items once thought of as used up. We use a vast selection of materials including but not limited to vitreous glass, smalti, stained glass, beads, gems, rocks, ceramics, mirror, shells, old pieces of jewelry, etc. Whether you find a piece of art in our gallery or collection series that inspires you, or you request a custom piece designed with your specific needs in mind ... we can help. Imagine a beautiful mosaic design on your table, wall art, vase, frames, mirror, trivet, backsplash, coasters, raised dog feeder, birdbath, birdhouse, garden sphere, flower pots, address sign, etc. Anything can have a mosaic designed on it so the possibilities are only limited by your imagination. This blog will share ideas on what you can do to transform your space into something you'll enjoy, while at the same time keeping it eco-friendly.
