Kit for May - Mosaic - Step by Step

Apply the sticky tape liner onto the screened wooden mat.





Peel off the white tape liner and attach the mosaic tiles according to the picture. Leave a tiny bit of space between each tile – approx 1-2mm.


After applying all the tiles, mix the packet of grouting powder with water at the ratio of 2:1 (grout:water).  Apply the mixed grout in the spaces between the tiles – I use an old teaspoon. Wait approx 45 minutes for it to dry off.
Remove any excess grout with a damp sponge – wipe in a circular motion gently until the tiles look shiny and clean.




And here it is finished along with some I made earlier! :-)
