I was able to grout two mosaics yesterday so only three more to go! I still have edges and the backs to finish, but I think I will go ahead and get them photographed first, so I can pass the images onto Barb to get going on the book. I can do all of the finishing touches afterwards. I recently found a photographer I am happy with, and hopefully we can get the photos taken next week. So excited to put it all together!

9th mosaic grouted for children's book
I should be done grouting the last six mosaics by the end of the week. I still have the edges to finish, as well as paint the backs, and then I will get them photographed!

Grouted fifth mosaic for children's book
I've been busy prepping the wedi board for the book mosaics, so haven't grouted in several days, but finally got to grout another one! I love the process of grouting and seeing how the mosaic changes, becomes cohesive and complete, and even softens the mosaic. Here is a detail from this mosaic, before and after grouting.
