    Re: Mosaic BB

    hi dottie, just saw your beautiful bowling ball mosiac design, and was wondering what you used to make it.  is it glass pieces of blue and clear, and did you grout it with white grout?  thanks for sharing.

    Re: Mosaic BB

    Hi Dragonfly...The mosaic ball is a bowling ball, glass mirror tiles. I get them from  http://shop.mosaicsbymaria.com/  I think they are cobalt blue and silver mirror tiles. I use GE Silicone 2 for windows and doors in the small tubes. The grout is charcoal sanded grout. Good luck.. they are beautiful and I have lots of them....If you are on Face Book you can look at more of my stuff here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wright-Specialties/321057009304

    Thanks..Dottie

    Re: Mosaic BB

    hi dottie, thanks for the information.  i had checked at hobby lobby for tiles, and it would have been too expensive to buy those little bags of tiles to complete a project.  i will check you out on facebook.  thanks again.  drangonfly.
