How do I make a mosaic urn similar to African-American memory jars?
African-American memory jars were home-made funeral urns that were covered with personal items that belonged to the deceased loved one. The objects included buttons, cigarette lighters, keys, pieces of favorite ceramics, etc. I’ve not done any research to find out what was used originally to attach the pieces, but I always use thinset in multi-media mosaics made of these type objects. Tip: You can turn the urn on its side and do a side each night.
