This is the mosaic so far--it's as big as the dining-room table (that's where it is) and about as heavy. I have to decide where I'm going to put it before I do any more work to it, because it's already heavy. Won't grout it until it's been mounted to wall.
It is seaglass (i.e., not real washed-up-on-the-beach seaglass, but bought-from-craft-store-for-use-in-flower-or-candle-arrangement-glass-that-has-been-smoothed-in-a-rock-sanding-machine), smooth pebbles, and some glass drops that you can buy in bags from the Dollar Tree. Stuck to tile backerboard with ordinary tile thinset, squeezed into place from a plastic bag (like icing/frosting a cake).
Now I wish I had collected glass from the Glass Beach in Fort Bragg.
