Intro to Installation 101

We have chalk lines to make sure we're putting them in straight (the lines only look crooked because of the photo)

Once the piece is in we wet it so we can cut through the paper and press all the pieces down

The next day we wet the paper again to loosen the glue and remove it

Once the paper is off  we start grouting. We are using three colours of grout for this project so the dark spots stay dark and the light spots stay light

On the last day, Mike caulks the border. This allows for a consistent  frame that won`t crack

And we are all finished!
