  Re: Mosaic BB Reply Quote 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 Do unto others as you would have them do unto you... http://wrightspecialties.blogspot.com/ http://vimeo.com/2163435
