The laying of the tiles is completed. I like the result, I hope you do too. Remember, what you see is the back side of the tiles. I have yet to put the piece on the table top and grout it.
Grout is always the issue, it seems - that is, what color do you use? This time I'm going to use grey. That is the same color of regular old cement. It should serve to fuse the lighter colors together and also will break up the dominating dark tones of the piece just a bit. At least that's what I anticipate will happen.
Sometimes you get a surprise after you do the grouting and the piece takes on a totally different look. One that you hadn't expected.
I don't like surprises like that, so I'm hoping it turns out ok.

Looking Good!
So what are you planning for your next project?
I'm thinking of a mirror - using MDS as the backing material. Rather large with very bright colors...sort of a swirling, fire-like burst of colors surrounding an oval shaped mirror.
Yellows, orange, reds, deep blues as a contrast.
Or...
My first attempt at 'architectural mosaic' - that means re-doing my shower wall.
