13th mosaic grouted for children's book

 Here's a couple of details from the 13th mosaic for my book.  I mentioned before I have put many things in the book to personalize it to my family.  All of the above are Christmas decorations we have collected over the years.  The penguin is a stuffed penguin given to my son, who has always loved penguins.  The snowman my son made in 4th grade.  And the cat is an ornament my mother gave to me after my childhood cat, Spotty, died.

  

 

Two more grouted for children's book

 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!

Grouted 10th mosaic for book - this one might be my favorite, especially the part of the mosaic I'm not showing (sorry!)

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!
