How to make it
Wear a dust mask while mixing dry grout and gloves while spreading it, since grout irritates skin and lungs.
1Plan the pattern
Lay the tiles on the base with small gaps between them until you like the design.
2Glue them down
Lift one tile at a time, add a dab of glue and press it back in place.
3Let it dry
Leave it overnight so nothing moves when you grout.
4Mix the grout
With gloves and a mask on, mix the grout to the thickness of peanut butter.
5Spread the grout
Push grout into every gap with a gloved hand or craft stick.
6Wipe it clean
After 15 minutes, wipe the tile faces with a damp sponge. Polish with a dry cloth an hour later.
7Add the feet
Stick felt pads on the bottom corners once it's fully dry.
Buy pre-cut mosaic tiles so there's no nipping or breaking. The whole project becomes placing and pressing.
