i have completed mosaicing the frame area. tomorrow i will glue the mirror in the center and grout.

i don't grout much these days... working primarily with smalti and golds... but this technique is really pleasant to grout. the mosaic is very flat, so it cleans up easily. i always enjoy watching the mosaic appear as i clean the grout off. i am interested to see how the deep burgandy looks with the black grout.
