I love that whole natural thing.
Can't wait to see the sign finished. I think it fits the "Tuscan elegance" theme perfectly.
So glad your sisters opening went well. Here's hoping for continued sucess.

Veeery Nice!!! This whole sign thing you got goin' on is Really workin' for ya!!!!

I'm done w/ both and ready to grout tomorrow. Thanks Tex and Calam...I think this rock and agate look is becoming my trademark....Will start another project after grouting in the morn....think I may start a Christmas project of some sort...maybe....I'll post pics after grouting....

I grouted the green on the leaves yesterday and will grout the blk today and the vase as well. I've got too many projects going on. Can't decide which one I want to pic up!!!

Here is a link that might be useful: Ready to grout

Also, did you cut the rocks or did you just happen to have pretty flat rocks? Also, I can't tell what color grout you used?

I have some rocks that need a project and this is beautiful, which is why I'm asking so many questions about it!

I collect rocks from the beach. I get them ine buckets. I then use the flat ones and throw the others in the driveway. I've only grouted the green leaves so far and I used mallard green grout (home depot). I'll use black on the rest of the sign and the vase.

Oh Cathy you are just "Rockin' n Rollin'" Great sign....did you try cutting any rocks yet? I'm so hoping to get a ring saw!!!

Didn't grout today. Still in organize mode. Trying to get all my tiles (which are way more than I thought) into containers and accessible. They've been in ziploc bags and in milk crates. But w/the blown neck disc I can no longer pick them up (very heavy), so I've had to do something different. It's taking way too long but I've got to get it done. Maybe I'll grout tomorrow...we'll see later

Really like the signs, especially the Christmas one - so full of the symbols of the season. You're so fast. Seems I'll never get caught up again.

I'd like to shine up my rocks when I'm done. How did you do it?

I use a small paint brush and brush just the top w/polyurethane before grouting. Makes clean up after so much easier. Then after grouting I seal again w/polyurethane. All the beautiful colors are more visible.

Man! You have been such a little work horse since you came to us!!! Look at you go, such great eye candy you share with us!!! Even fun looking at your work station!!!
