Anyone Can Learn to Mosaic! Mosaic is a very satisfying hobby, as it helps to de-stress and pass the time in a productive way, while resulting in a unique and tangible item for your home! Snip It has mosaic kits that are perfect for beginners, as they contain everything you need to get started, as well as comprehensive instructions. Here are 8 easy steps to creating a Mosaic Chalkboard: 1. Apply a little bit of glue onto the surface of your wooden board. 2. Arrange the pre-nipped chips of glass onto the wooden board, making sure to align them flush to the edges. Leave 1 to 2mm spaces between each chip. 3. Allow to dry for 30 minutes. 4. Mix grout powder with water until you get the consistency of toothpaste. 5. Spread grout and work into all the nooks and crannies. 6. Use an old credit card or piece of plastic to remove excess grout. 7. Leave to dry for 1 hour, and then polish with a soft cloth. 8. Hang your artwork up and admire your handiwork!
