Good chance this tool will work but won’t know until you try. Thanks for being a fan!

Although the Seabell wheel tool would be my first choice because the jaw of the tool expands.

😊

Thank you! Cheers!

I rarely grind my glass edges; you can bevel. the grout if the glass thickness is slightly different, but generally speaking, the grout covers the share edges. Good question. Thanks!

I think the Frosty is slightly less sticky so let’s go easier. just an option.

e60000 is an industrial adhesive, cures clearish - few adhesives cure 100%clear. You will almost always see the substrate. A trick is to use metallic tape on the back of your clear stained glass - creates kind of a mirror effect, but only ok for indoors. Then you can use WeldBond or other PVA glue. For the exterior, I use a white thin-set, which has 100% coverage between the glass and the substrate, and simply reads white.

Noted in description, www.witsendmosaic.com. BEST mosaic supply store, terrific customer service.

I would make a pattern that is cut out. There is a video dedicated to patterns and designs.

​@@MakeitMosaics Thank you very much! I watched your video and it is great. It seems both of you are the real deal when it comes to creating mosaics! However, I am still looking for a way to transfer a design onto mirror glass. Any ideas?

If you are trying to put a pattern into a mirror cut out the pattern and draw onto mirror with grease pencil, I would consider face tape method or mesh method as alternative. You don’t want markings on the mirror surface that are difficult to remove.

@@MakeitMosaics I see, thank you very much again! Will try the cut out method although the pattern is quite is intricate. Anyway, you have a new subscriber :)

You are so welcome!

Yes you can plant directly in the pot. Have fun, great project. Note from Bonnie.

Glad it was helpful!

Have fun!

We have many folks who help with production, and I happily include their creative ideas, including their editorial video and audio choices. I appreciate your candid voice, I also must go to bat for the hard-working people making this channel available at no charge. This video has very little music. Thank you for watching.

You are so welcome!

Depends on what surface is made of. If concrete, then thin-set mortar rated for your climate. If resin or plastic then silicone or Epoxy (messy and drips). For just. For small things, you might try Apoxie Sculpt. It is a 2-part clay, expensive but really a great product. I use for all sorts of things, watch this video, demonstrated ua-cam.com/video/r8rYgzR3F0k/v-deo.html

Thanks for being a fan.

Thanks for being a fan. I rarely seal my grout; rather, I purchase grout with sealant and UV protectants already in it (Laticrete Permacolor, Mapei has a version.) Recommend you find a local tile store; they carry a much broader range of grouts. The sealant process is very labor intensive; I only do it for utilitarian projects such as a floor. You must wipe off the tiles, or they will be dulled by an annoying coat of sealant that, once dry, is challenging to remove. Most sealants, per the manufacturer, need to be repeated once a year or thereabouts. Not all of my colleagues agree with me. Last but not least, I put all of my pots under cover for the winter. Terracotta is a low-fire ceramic, and no matter what you do, after a couple of years, will degrade if exposed to freeze-thaw cycle.

Thanks for such a quick reply! Your comments are very helpful. 😀

There is an entire playlist dedicated to working with thin-set: project examples, clean up, storage, etc. Here is link. Thanks for being a fan! ua-cam.com/play/PLz2kuKCUhTHbm9PInpxHTif4_PiFDEMzZ.html

Cinca unglazed porcelain from Witsend Mosaic, link in description. Four of the Make it Mosaic kits are in this material, yummy.

wood can only be used indoors, it will warp from moisture, if using wood you can use PVA glue (Weldbond etc) but table can not withstand wet or too much moisture as PVA glues are water soluble

Great question, no one has ever asked. yes damp is fine when applying tiles, I let thinset cure (dry) before grouting. Good luck. Thanks for being a fan.

Nothing done to prepare porcelain other than remove some dirt.

Thanks! Keep creating!

Thank you! And thanks for being a fan.

Thank you, I am honored and I hope you find the book helpful! Bonnie

The tiles used in this video are these witsendmosaic.com/ceramic-porcelain/nova-glazed-porcelain.html

And that's why we make these videos! Seeing is always helpful. Thanks for being a fan.

You are so welcome!

You need some sort of armature to support the thin-set. Maybe a adaptation of a handmade substrate process, see videos on channel Make Your Own Substrates. Here is link to one of the videos: ua-cam.com/video/cKZzNzHZMpo/v-deo.html

I am pretty sure Sylvia did not paint her glass, but rather tinted the mortar (see the video in the channel about coloring grout and thin-set), maybe part was a pale green and the other white. Then again she was a pretty innovative thinker and I am not exactly sure. Sadly she passed away 2 years ago (I miss her!), so I can not ask. I know other artists who have applied the TG to painted surfaces, then used a silicone or some sort of clear adhesive so thin set does not eat away at the paint. So many variables, from paint quality to the exact mixture of thin sets, it is impossible to say how long until or if a failure will occur. Really not possible to give a definitive answer. Good luck!

@@MakeitMosaics Thankyou for the reply, I'm sorry you lost your friend ⚘ Thank you for all yor wonderful videos. 🧚‍♀️
