Finally added grout to tile. Love the finished look!
Grout for tile
Tile set on mortar
With help from my friend Viktar, made new teak trim and bulkhead to box in the tile area, lined it with HDPE, and set tile on mortar.
Final set of tiles is ready
The custom tiles I cut a few weeks back are now ready to go. We’ve added 3 more full size tiles to complete the set. This final set includes: beach umbrella, mermaid cat, kelp, waves, swimmer, fish, looking glass, and a tiny compass rose.
New set of tiles
Dolphin, wheel, pelican, ship’s bell, sand dollar, and a bikini.
Installed backing board & cut custom tiles
With 2 sets of tiles ready, today was the day to dry fit the entire assembly and figure out the last row. Ended up with 5 custom pieces that will be done next week. Will likely rotate the tiles in the final layout (and need to figure out which one goes where). Teak border is also just FPO right now, needs more work to have smooth edges and better bottom shape.
The 2nd set of tiles is ready
Picked up the second set of tiles today: an octopus, jellyfish, whale tail, anchor, crab, Golden Gate Bridge, and the Big Dipper pointing to Polaris. Looking pretty good.
First set of tiles is ready!
The first set of custom tiles is ready: a lighthouse, seashell, starfish, marlin, mermaid reading a book, seagulls, and a horse running through water.
