The first step is to clean your kitchen counter tops. Now, if you are working around a sink you will need to go ahead and remove it. Once you are finished you can re install it on the counter tops.
Everyone will have a different sized kitchen counter tops, so I can only give you tips on how to know how to make your Tumbled Sea Glass Mosaic Kitchen Counter Tops.
The entire counter tops will be covered in Tumbled Sea Glass.
Now, you need to establish the pattern or lack of pattern you want to create on your Tumbled Sea Glass Mosaic Kitchen Counter Tops. Personally, I like a random pattern, but that is up to you.
The first step is to find your Tumbled Sea Glass. I come across this all the time at arts and craft stores. You can buy it by the bag. The Tumbled Sea Glass is usually separate by color.
Once you have your pattern established, you need to start working on your Tumbled Sea Glass Mosaic Kitchen Counter Tops.
So, take some rough sand paper and start to sand off the shine from our laminate counter tops.
When you have finished you can wee away any dust.
Now, to start applying your Tumbled Sea Glass mosaic tiles I recommend working in sections. This means, add some glue to the back of your individual piece of Tumbled Sea Glass and then place it in the correct location on the kitchen counter tops. You can glue directly onto your laminate counter tops as long as you sand them up and remove the shine.
Now, once the Tumbled Sea Glass pieces have dried in place on the kitchen counter tops you can grout. Be sure to read how long your specific tile adhesive needs to dry before you grout.
You can use pre made grout or mix your own to save money.
Now, I would use a white grout for a clean look. You can buy grout in almost any color imaginable.
Use a trowel to apply the grout liberally over each Tumbled Sea Glass tile o the kitchen counter tops. Let it dry to a haze, then wipe a way with a sponge until clean and clear.
Now, once the grout has dried on your Tumbled Sea Glass Mosaic Kitchen Counter Tops you are finished.
