Hi

Decided to do a bird bath for my backyard. Found a small dessert sized plate that I used as center piece and various randomly placed tiles around it.

Attached is a picture

I think next time I'll try to use stones of the same height, it made the grout lay down unevenly.

Suggestions, comments appreciated.

Mary

I'm using a craft quality sealer and think it is a poor product. It is made by plaid. It is pealing up and the smell while applying is horrible. Thank goodness I'm doing it outdoors.

I have to regrout and seal a portion do to the peeling.
