This is translation if Ingeborg"s comment; You are the first to show me how to work with mosaic so thoroughly and professionally and give me hope that I too can learn it. Many thanks and best regards.

She's a very good teacher. And I'm a teacher. You'll be all set to tile a wall or a floor after doing this, and learning how to use a tile saw.

Sie sind die Erste, die mir so gründlich und professionel das Arbeiten mit Mosaik zeigt und die mir Hoffnung macht, dass auch ich es lernen kann. Herzlichen Dank und liebe Grüße.

Thanks Bonny, I’m just starting mosaics, I have an old singer sewing machine and I want to make a mosaic table top for this sewing machine base. I thought I’d try a pot first the, if successful I’ll move onto my bigger project. I love your pots, they look amazing.

Great instructions, love your confidence and expertise, plus you told us the "WHY" certain techniques are done and I like that because it is an important step I will never miss. I feel like you truly want us to be successful at this beautiful artwork. Thanks for that!

Tips I didn’t think of….a really well done informative video that helps us newbies. Thank you so much! Really appreciated.

Thank you for a great video. I especially like the fact that you have a construction background and are knowledgeable about the curing of the thin set and the grout. Yours is the first video that explains the slow curing. Thank you.

Simply genious gorgeous phenominal i love it!!!!

Hi those pots are beautiful. Do you sell them?

[nancyrussell]

If using concrete as a base do you need to keep it damp as well to fill the pores? I have poured some cement domes with a hole for pole in the middle to use as a base for a totem. We are stacking ceramic objects made by our art group on the concrete mosaic base and will have them in the garden next to our gallery and studio area. I’ve let the concrete cure and used a polymer additive instead of water. I was planning to use the same additive instead of water for the thinset and grout.

That is turning out to be so beautiful. Great job!!

[theartess]

Thank you! Such great directions and understanding of the mechanics of this art.

[JillSneider]

I love all your videos! This one inspired me to make the perfect gift for my daughter-in-law.
Question… do you seal the grout on your flowerpots?
Thank you for your excellent tutorials. I’ve learned so much from you. :-)

I never would have guessed that you needed to keep the pot wet. Thanks for the info I would have done it totally wrong.
