August
13, 2007 - Finished sticking my final piece of tile this
morning! It's already in the 90's so I'm glad to be
done.
Unless I change my
mind, my grout color is going to be a mustard yellow. I was going
to use up my leftovers, (creme, light blue), but I've realized over
time that you need to put your best effort into each and every
project because your going to be looking at it a long time. |
| Red grout also would have been awesome, but I had mine for so long
it turned rock solid. I now store my grout in plastic baggies
and squish out the air.
I think the mustard
yellow with bring out the warm shades in the paint color, enhance
the tile colors and make the project pop out of the wall.
Since I don't see the color of grout
I want at Lowes, I'll be buying pigment and adding it to existing
grout to make it the color I want. It's a very hazy day, hot,
the air is full of moisture.

August 4, 2007 - I'm
finding that shoes with good arch support really make a
difference. Standing such long periods of time, I find my feet
start burning. Of course, I'm wearing plastic gardening slip
ons, so I can take breaks, go inside to get a drink, etc., and slide
my shoes off at the door. I wear a wet towel around my neck to
keep myself cool. |
Got outside early this
morning around 7:30 and put in 2.5 hours. Made lots of
progress!!!
I'm planning on grouting first and
then painting in between the design.
I'm working around the sun and heat
of the day here in Orlando, Florida.
