I really enjoyed watching you create the mosaics so much that I subscribed. You definitely deserve more subs, I understand and appreciate that myself. Thank you and keep showcasing your wood art.
Thank you! I do finish each piece differently whether it is painted or a natural wood piece. I spray painted pieces with a matter clear coat from Krylon. If it is natural lath, I use Dead Matte finish (linked in my amazon store) or if its a hard wood like walnut or oak, I will use Walrus Matte Finishing Oil. I hope that helps! I have my 2025 Mosaic Madness series starting soon, I hope you tune in! :)
Thanks! I glue and pin nail everything down and let them dry completely before cutting the edges with either my track saw or table saw. Sometime I have some chip outs, but I found the table saw reduces that a lot. Hope that helps! I am currently working on my second Mosaic Madness series and filming so I hope you get to watch those videos as well :)
I buy ALOT of samples from Home Depot when playing with colors. I use the Tricorn Black, “Perfect” white (I believe it’s a gallon for trim paint.) and the gray was a random sample without a name😅 But wishing you the best of luck and happy building!
As someone who dismantles barns and has an eye for detail I just wanted to reach out and say great job. Looks awesome.
Thanks Jordan! I love the character the old wood brings to these modern patterns. Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much for watching, I hope you got to check out this year’s Mosaic Madness as well! I appreciate the kind words :)
Hi, these designs are great, love it. Im doing one myself just curious to wether you apply a varnish at the end ?

Amazing stuff! How do you trim them down without the pieces coming unstuck?

What paints and stains do you use for the black white and gray, looks amazing! Trying to make my first one and can’t figure out what to buy color wise

what program do you use to design your mosaics?
I normally rough sketch them with my iPad Pro using Procreate!
Thanks! I’ll have to try that.
