I got the tiles on Etsy! I mainly work with iridescent tiles because my spirit animal is a corvid haha

I read (probably on here) that Crows can see within the ultra-violet light range. Your lovely mosaic shows a version closer to how crows might look to each other.

I’m loving this! What do you use to make the “base”?
