Grout question
#6
Thanks, you guys. You're both right, I AM my worst critic. All the grout is the same color, so it's fine. I finished the back porch and patio yesterday, and would you believe it rained last night!? Just can't win. I took your recommendation, Brad, and put tarps over the whole thing, so it should be fine. The grout in the back is WAY darker than the front :-)

I've put another picture on the Shutterfly web site that I'd like you to see:

This is a turtle inlay that I saw in a store and had to photograph. I've drawn my own template in sheet plastic that's virtually identical to this one. I'm looking forward to installing this someday, and any hints you can offer would be greatly appreciated. My intent is not to inlay in a compass rose such as the one in this photo, but to hand-cut into floor tiles to inlay the pieces, which would be a contrasting stone.

By the way, I'd really like to see some of the tile work you do. I'll bet there are a bunch of people on PunaWeb who'd like to try it, but haven't for lack of inspiration.
