Poured Cement - A Popular Mosaic Technique
The poured cement process (also called the indirect method) is how you can make mosaic items using molds. Stepping stones are the most popular form of poured mosaics, but you can also get molds for coasters, picture frames, benches, bricks and even birdbaths! To create a poured mosaic item, you will need a mold (reusable), pattern, glass, (check out our pre-cuts), cutting and shaping tools, assembly tape, cement and possibly cement colorants.
1. Choose pattern, glass and appropriate mold (molds are reusable).
2. Cut pattern with mosaic shears.
3. Cut and shape glass.
4. Lay glass on pattern and cover with Mosaic Mount. Coat mold with release and lay glass in mold, glass facing up.
5. Mix and pour FlashCrete.
6. Wait for FlashCrete to dry (1 hour) and release brick.
