    I've watched a lot of these videos. We are doing a new build here. You are the first one I heard say how important it is to look at the patterns and matching it up. My little jobs on backsplashes taught me that there is some art in acheiving the right look.
    Kudos to you sir!

    Professional tile setter here. would be easier to do the mosaic in the niche first, then do the tile surrounding the niche. The mosaic is harder to cut perfectly. When you do the tile surrounding the tile could cover the imperfections of the mosaic.

      think drainage.... the water running down the backsplash of the shelf will now run onto the flat piece. If you place the backspash in first, the waterr will run down the back and onto a grout line and the portential for a leak is greater. pick your poison here.

      Easy as pie, just practice on scrap. Handheld grinder with a good mesh blade. Good thing is it's an outside corner not inside, so you don't need to make it perfect. Better to cut a a thinner angle and remove more material, because thinset will fill it up anyway.

Or I’m wrong and the inside tiles of niche had to be miter as well the 5/8 or it was just miter at the length of tile needed and didn’t have to add extra 5/8?

    What’s the name of the thin set that you use? What’s the water to thin set ratio when you want it thick for mosaics? How much work time do you have when the consistency is that thick? Do you have to work fast so that it doesn’t set too quickly?
