Tip:
You can make mosaic pieces by scoring the glass at ½” intervals and then breaking. Use mosaic nippers to create the mosaic pieces from the ½” strips.

· Step 1: Remove Glass. To keep from breaking the precut pieces of glass, remove them from the package using an X-acto knife. Use our precut glass with you mosaic tiles.

· Step 2: Glue the Mosaic Pieces. Glue the precut lighthouse mosaic in the center of the frame with Weldbond. Fill in remaining areas with the blue background glass. We used a darker blue glass for water and light blue for sky. After the design is complete allow the project to dry for 24 hours.

· Step 3: Grouting Place the project on newspaper. Mix grout according to manufacture’s instructions. The grout should be the consistency of a thick milk shake. Spread the grout with your gloved hand and press grout into all crevices. Make sure you wipe the frame clean of any grout. Wait 10 minutes to allow the grout to set up.

· Step 4: Cleanup Carefully start wiping the grout with a lightly dampened sponge being careful not to pull grout out of the crevices. Rinse sponge frequently. Remember it is import the sponge be as dry as possible. After the excess grout has been removed allow the grout to dry for another 45 minutes. Using a soft cloth and 0000 steel wool, buff the glass and grout and use a razor blade to remove spots of dried glass. Using the black sharpie create black windows on the body of the lighthouse.

· Step 5: Attach Hanging Hardware
This frame comes with feet for sitting on a table or attach the hanging hardware that was supplied with the frame according to the directions.
