Using Two Colors of Grout

I have been working on a new mosaic that I am ready to grout but I decided that I would try using two different colors. I think I will use white around the edges where all the black tiles are so that they will stand out, but I prefer to use charcoal on the interior part of the piece.

The dishes I used to make the tiles for this one are primarily various shades of blue flowers with green leaves on a white background, however, there are also hints of black so I chose to use that color as my contrast.

I originally used black glass tiles around the focal piece on top, but when I decided to grout that portion in charcoal I changed them out for white so they would show better. We'll see.

My signature jewelry is used in the focal piece and here and there around the mosaic. I also handpainted a knob for a little fun but it could actually hold something too.

This is a large mirror (20x24) so I put it on the floor to take this picture so that I could get it all in.


Here are a few close-up shots so you will be able to see the difference once I grout it.

This is a new thing for me so I am anxious to see how it will look.
