We received the 30 tiles we'd commissioned from Splashy and assembled them on a board to see how they were going to look. Luckily, they'd numered them on the back, so it wasn't exactly like a jigsaw puzzle.
Next, dear old Dad got to play with the tile adhesive and make the mosaic permanent. We opted to put them on a removable panel. They're just to beautiful to make them a permanent part of the house.
We put the board up with a poster adhesive--that didn't stick worth a darn! I added a little mastic adhesive to one side of the poster adhesive and figured the other side would pull away if we want to remove the mosaic. Here's the board up, but no grout yet.
Back away from the pukeko.

Grout in place, job done. Thanks Splashy, for a fantastic mosaic!
