Mosaics

Mosaics by Mum (top), R (left) and L (right)

After making our paper mosaics and Roman villa (see previous posts), we had a go at making a real mosaic.

Supplies:  tiles, wood bases, grout/glue, spatulas - all available at Bunnings

First we spread a layer of grout/glue.



Next we added our tiles and then left it to dry.




Later, once it was dry, we spread more grout over the top.




Then wiped the excess off with a cloth.




Dad wasn't too complimentary about our grouting skills, but it was a quick and easy project so I expect we will make some more.
