Table progress

Some of you may remember the table I took that my neighbor was throwing away. It's 90 inches long. I mosaic tiled it just before/when I got pregnant with Ella. I have always been afraid to grout because the tiles/plates/stuff are all different heights.

Robert's friend from the train is a button salesman. He gave me several boxes of discontinued and overstocked buttons and I got motivated. On Sunday I decided to grout. Because I couldn't add any buttons until everything on the top was cemented on.

Here are some pics:


When I took it out to grout, just before I started...



Grouted and polished



Buttons!

The game-piece tiles say, "LASZLO, LILY AND ELLA ARE THE MUSIC OF OUR LIVES."
