Dude, never ruin your art for the sake of a video. Not something that has taken so long. If I would have made something (considered half way) and loved it as is, I would have kept it. I love the process , complete, incomplete , whatever. You def could have ended it right there, did your cool light shows that you do and it would have been just as good of a video. I pinky promise. I still think it turned out very good! Again, love your vid! Can't wait to see you next time!!! Remember , no matter what anyone says, There's absolutely NO rules in ART! Do it how you like it, and its still art and still, in this case, glass on glass.
Oh yea for sure man! It wasnt a rules thing, it was a commitment thing. I did this video for those asking for a glass on glass mosaic. So in my mind that is a commitment. Lol. My brain doesnt work any other way. I had to finish it with the original plan for those people. 😂
❤️
the real "amazement" is that you can do the work with those nails 💅 🤠Very Mice work!
Why thank ya! They are my own little built in tools! lol
When I started my stained glass journey, I found your videos so incredibly helpful to learn the process. Currently making the natural progression to mosaics with my glass scraps. So happy to find you have video coverage of the topic! Thank you for sharing your process and experience! You are helping many of us❤
Thank you so much Rachel! I'm so glad my videos have been helpful for you, thank you for your support!
My opinion, only because you asked opinions- I would have derailed and changed to epoxy when you fell in love with the pumpkin after finishing the mosaic portion. For me, there is nothing wrong with straying from the journey.. we don’t have to learn everything the hard way.
I am open to following the lead my project takes me, rather than always fighting with it to get it exactly my way. If any of that makes sense?! Absolutely love your art, and the lessons you teach ❤
Thank you for the detailed tutorial. I just started taking leaded stained glass classes and my 9 year old feels left out. I think she would have fun doing a mosaic with me and still feel successful making a glass craft. The only challenge I forsee is finding her a pair of gloves small enough to keep her from getting little cuts. Good to know ripple glass is not a good choice.
I think it’s beautiful it I agree that it would have been spectacular epoxied. I learned a lot, thank you!
For sure. Thank you!!
What an amazing video! I don't know of anyone's mentioned it, but there is a transparent grout that is for glass on glass mosaics. I hope that helps! 🙏
Thank you! I work on my stained glass in our garage but with winter coming I was prepared to stop until Spring. You’ve opened up a whole new world for me, this is something I can do inside since I don’t need to solder. I love how you take us on this journey with you, explaining what worked for you and what you would do differently. Love your channel!
Thanks Rennee!! Definitely a good winter project if you dont solder inside! 🖤
I do agree that it looked much better without the grouting. I am trying to do one for the first time as well
Absolutely love it!!! Stunning ❤️ Bravo Mak!!!!
This so much fun. Wrapping up my first attempt. I'll be 70 in two months. I'll be making stained glass pieces until I die. The flow of the hot lead... Everything's ZEN. You really are all I need for a resource. Strong work.
I really liked it without any grout. But you gave me so many ideas and different looks that I could do and make it shine. Can't wait to try my own. I would like to see another video with the epoxy.
Love this experimental tutorial ❤❤❤ thank you.
Love it. with or without the grout. I did like it better without grout. Thank you for doing this one! Very educational
Right? It was painful to grout it. Lol
It looks great. I learned a lot and appreciate that you took a chance!
Is beautiful.
I love it.
Hi McKenzie just found your super outstanding tutorial. I’m going to try it in the fall. Thank you so much for sharing.
I LOVE IT!!! Thank you so much.
Absolutely love that you try new things!
Me too! Lol!
I think it looks freaking awesome! I love it!
Thank you 🖤
It looks amazing. Absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks Iris. Still unsure how I feel about it. Lol.
That is beautiful! I love it 😍 but I'll do it in regular stained glass!
You can paint the grout any color you like. 🌹The lay out is perfect.
I was definitely thinking about that too. But after it was done im like no way in hell am i painting each lil grout line. 😂🖤
thanks for the lesson, i learned a lot
That was inspiring. Thanks for the excellent video.
Thank you for watching!
I love this! I use E6000 for the adhesive and a couple thin coats of resin on top. I don’t use grout.
Definitely looked better without the grout. But like you said you were committed. I would gave been okay with you stopping before grout. But now you know and so do we. Your videos are so informative. I've been teaching myself to soft solder because of you. Thank you so much.✌❤☀🌈
Thank you so much Karen! 🖤🙏
I am inspired to do one with resin now.
Yes!!! That would be awesome!
I’d love to see how it comes out with the resin pour! I also think it would have looked better with a black grout but still I loved the video! Looks groovy in the window 😍
Thanks Josh! 🖤
Awesome project. A learning process. I agree use the clear next time. The grout made it look murky. Love your videos.
Totally agree Edythe. Thank you! 🖤
Just came across ya, great vid content. Your are such a smart gal...very well put in speaking
I like your comment about Wissmach glass. I live an hour away and was just there Saturday 10/15 for the clearance sale. Grabbed many sheets with most being 50% off. This mosaic looks cute but the grout wasn't needed. Your instructions were helpful and informative.
Thanks Debi! 🖤
Is there no end to your talent? You seem to smash every project you turn your hand to and do it like a pro. I am in awe
Thank you Jane. Best compliment I could get. I do always try my best at whatever im doing. 🖤
@@MakenzieHallie been following you since your earliest videos but i changed my name. I think it was jane Herring. Just to confuse you
You can usually colour thinset with a Sharpie - May be worth a try if you don’t like the white. You then open up the world of different colour grouts for different areas 😉
I often mount the GonG mosaics I’ve done in a picture frame with a piece of mirror card and the wooden frame backing thingie it comes with, if standing it on a shelf. If hanging it on the wall away from a window, a proper piece of mirror.
I liked it with and without the grout. 💖💖🎶🎶
It’s beautiful but I understand the frustration.Gog doesn’t look easy, I’ve seen a lot of glass with resin so I would like to try it. Thanks for the informative video.
Actually, like you said, we wouldn't have known this outcome unless you did it and would've been wondering anyways. I agree, on the next one, try just clear to see how that goes.
Also, I bet you throw a helluva Halloween party! If so, let us in on it afterwards, at least the decorations and final look! 😁
I will be uploading a look at my halloween decor soon! And can also film the annual halloween party at my best friends house, if everyone is ok with it. 🖤🧡
And yes, now that this is done for those who were asking, I can do epoxy next! Guilt free. Lol!
I really liked it without the grout too but it still looks great! I think I would have used the epoxy but it still looks great. 💜
Thank you!
🖤🖤
Epoxy would be great! I’m impressed. I did love it with out the grout! Still beautiful. Hands down.
Thank you so much my friend 🖤🙏
Always love your work! Looks great but agreed looked even better before the grout. Yes try the epoxy next time around
Indeed! 🖤
Would love to see you do one with the epoxy!!!!
👹👹👹 i may or may not be working on said suggestion this week! 🖤
Black grout would have been beautiful. And also leaving it without grout to look good. But I think if you grounded I would do black. Also people have been putting resin in between their tiles. Thank you for doing this, it was very educational and interesting. Just discovered this video on my feed and loved it.
It’s a very cute design, and it’s your art. We’re just here to watch you create. I personally would have been fine with you not grouting. I hope you never feel like you have to do something against your creativity for a video. You make such incredible pieces, I’d watch paint dry with you, lol.
So cute, the epoxy would pop your colors. Looking forward to the next one
Thanks Cindy! Next one will be better for sure!
Goodness you have amazing patience, your work is brilliant, but I definitely prefer without the grout . Please keep trying glass on glass 😊
Thank you and same!
🌸I think You Did a GREAT Piece !!! Personally I would not have minded if you had used the Silicone “Glue” to grout it. However, I learned a LOT from your demonstration either way 😘🥰❤️
You can do an acrylic wash on the grout to change the color. Paint the mosaic whatever color you want and quickly wipe it off before the paint dries.
I actually tried this in a panic last ditch effort to like it more. Lol. Unfortunately it did not work what so ever! The paint just comes right off the grout. Ive got plenty of footage trying to get it black and getting pissed. 😂🖤
@@MakenzieHallie Oh no! 😂 Maybe it could be because thinset is porous and hasn’t fully cured? I know I’ve read that it can be a pain to paint mortar. Depending on which brand it is it can take up to a month to fully cure. Hopefully you’ll be able to do something to make you like your project. It still looks great though!
Your mosaic came out awesome. I agree that grout took away from the beauty of the finished look.
I do a lot of glass on glass without using grout to replicate different organizations crest and symbols. I have to grind each piece but I end up with a clean completed piece. Your stained glass projects are always beautiful and detailed. I love your glass selections and lean towards a large volume of iridescents also. I keep forgetting to mention that I took your recommendation on using the Zepher Ring Saw. I have 2 Taurus and there is a water line in the Taurus. You can see It from the outside of the tank when you are adding the water.
Thats awesome! And unfortunately they removed the water mark, thats why mine doesnt have it! Ill deff be doing another glass on glass, but encasing it crystal clear this time!! 😂😂🖤🖤
Thank you again. Can I use the picture glass with glass mini mosaics?. And glue them with DAP Ultra Clear? Your art work comes out beautiful.
I like the effect I could see on my computer screen. I would have to see it in person or maybe a extreme closeup. I like your color choices on this piece also so I’m inclined to say it fine. Thanks. Happy Halloween. PAM/Ri
Thanks Pam! 🖤
If you poured resin over it instead of grout? That might look nice too
It really doesn’t look bad at all but I do also think a darker grout would look better. Also I would like to see one done with the epoxy once you recover from this one 😂. You really do have an eye for your craft and your designs are fantastic.
Thank you so much Donna, I appreciate that. The next one will absolutely be encased with epoxy! 😂🖤
Loved, loved, loved your video. Thanks for sharing your mosaic project clear glass on glass. I think you're right when you said you liked the clear better without the colored grout. I agree with you! The edges of the clear glass are all it really needs with the light shining through. It is simply beautiful design/idea and really didn't need the grout. I enjoy your presentations that you are so honest as you proceed with your projects so we all can learn from your trials and "mistakes". Definitely no textured glass on the mosaic or the weld bond wash. Could using more clear glue on the clear glass then place the tiny glass pieces onto the glue using the glue as the grout? It would work as clear grout. Just a thought.
Please do another G on G video but maybe Christmas. Please share all your Halloween decorations in your home. Please take a break though.... Happy Halloween!
Thank you as always Dottie! Absolutely will be doing another and a halloween decor vid soon! 🖤🖤🖤🧡🧡🧡
Please Please do more Glass on Glass 😄
😂 i willl i will. But EPOXY this time. 😂🖤🖤
I am going to use a starlite EVO crystal translucent epoxy grout once my piece is complete. I hope it will help distract from the few places you can see a bubble or whatever else I see wrong. Very intricate piece .
It looks beautiful regardless. How you thought of using iridescent grout? Or diamond grout. There is a mosaic artist in Alexandria Virginia who uses that type of grout . When she displays her art against the window the grout is see through. I have tried it on a small project and it does look better. The unfortunate thing is that it’s quite expensive to compare with regular grout or thin set grout. The artist told me that’s the only type that she uses for glass on glass mosaic. I must say that the effect is spectacular. She also did a few by pouring resin in the gaps instead of grout. It gave the mosaic tiles a floating effect, but I looked the look of the iridescent grout better. Maybe you should give it a try. Great job. Thank you for sharing.
I am also upset with my glass on glass. I also used a rippled clear for my background. No more glass on glass
Me personally I wouldn’t have grouted it, but it still looks good.
Yea i wish i had a choice! 😔
The outtro music reminds me of puppies rolling around in the grass on a sunny day.
Aw haha GOOD. Im A OK with that!! Lol
Maybe use UV resin to glue tiles in place (cure as you go) and then do a final clear resin pour over the design.
It still looked good with grout but I definitely think it would looked great without the grout but I guess you live and learn ,still loving these videos though 🖤🖤
Thanks Daisy. If it wasnt a glass on glass mosaic video for those folks asking, I would have NEVER grouted it. So disappointing to have to do.
@@MakenzieHallie I guess that’s sometimes the hard part of being a content creator you have to do the things your audience will love even when you know it’s the wrong choice,but I enjoyed watching the video and learned some new things so thank you even know it didn’t turn out how you wanted 🖤
Could you have used translucent grout to get the look you wanted? Love watching your videos!
Is there such a thing? I didn't know that if there is
I think you should do a new one maybe for Christmas Christmas and do the Apocalypse cause I agree with you
I will deff be doing another with epoxy/resin. 🖤
Would you be able to add a thin layer of the silicone to the entire piece of glass first and then add the individual pieces on or would it dry too fast?
I couldnt believe the hour timer as the time lapse went on. At least you learned a bunch for next time. And it doesnt look bad, just could look better.
It was truly UNBELIEVABLE how long it took. Trying to meticulously place the perfect amount of glue and clean up just triples the time. Insane.
You don’t have to grout your glass on glass Art….It was beautiful with out the grout🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Torture. Why do you torture me? 5 days after right hand surgery and you show me this? I thought we had a thing, Makenzie. Like an honest to goodness RUclips friendship. I am at the very least 2 or 3 weeks away from doing this. Yes, this is so awesome and you did a fantastic job as always, but YOU'RE KILLING ME!! HAHA, cant wait to do this!! I'd love to send you a pic of one I did this spring in a giant frame, with glass, stones and shells and sand and I epoxied it. I loved doing it.
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 PUT THE GLASS DOWN. I REPEAT, PUT THE GLASS DOWN!! Dont want to make that surgery pointless. Was it carpel tunnel?
Also, send me it on Instagram! 🖤
@@MakenzieHallie carpal tunnel was in June, this was trigger thumb tendon and lump at the base of my ring finger. I cant catch a break, lol. Ill send a pi on Instagram!
@@MakenzieHallie let me know if it worked, I'm puter challenged
I think maybe a black grout would have made the whole thing pop. You could have just grouted the pumpkin and left the background alone because I agree I thought it looked great!
Boy, you are your worst critic! It's adorable! Cute, cute, cute! I really think you should have gone with your instincts on this one. If you didn't grout it, you would have liked it so much more. I thought it looked great either way but, it wasn't my project. It wasn't our project either. It's not that you weren't following through...you discovered at that point, it was perfect. Trust your artistic gut 😊 Your friend from Washington State 😃 Therese
P.S. Did you get my suggestion on your next 3D project? An origami folded crane out of glass. I think they would be a perfect, not too hard, and they symbolize Peace. BUT.....I wish you would let us purchase the pattern.
epoxy- the piece is amazing and i would be proud to hang it anywhere! but such a shame to loose the extra light refraction from all those cut edges. so much hard work- really appreciate the video
thank you again🎃🎃🎃
Exactly my thoughts Michael. The grout no matter what color, just stamps out the shine. Epoxy next!!! 🖤
@@MakenzieHallie lookin forward to the next one!😀
🙏🙏🖤🖤
I personally wouldn't have grouted it. I would have left it the way it was. You loved it that way, it would not have been a cop out. You don't always have to grout mosaics. 🙂 But it did come out cute, I wouldn't worry so much about the bubbles, people who look at it won't really notice them.
Definitely. The clear bubbles under the ripple clear glass look actually quite cool! I MUST do it again, but do it how i would want to. 🖤
@@MakenzieHallie Just start with what you have envisioned. You were planning on grouting this one but when you were done, you liked it the way it was. Each piece speaks to you as you are doing it. Just go with the flow of it. The next one you do, you might get to the end and think it would look better grouted, so you grout it. There is also this grout I got, after watching a Treasury Road video about it, Crystal Evo, by Litokol, I haven't tried it yet as I'm not sure how to measure it out, it's two parts. It is a translucent grout. It takes on the colors of the glass it's around. I am planning on grouting my kitchen window box that I glass tiled the bottom in green iridescent. If I were you, I'd do another halloweeny one and just let it speak to you as you do it, you know there are no rules, only what your imagination and creativity dictate. 🙂 Good luck!! ❤
I agree it looked better clear
Do you have a link to the tweezers you used?
Grout isn’t always a good idea! I teach mosaics and just fyi your piece is great but I would not have opted to grout! Also consider going on top of your piece with more glass covering the grout lines. It’ll really become 3D. Just do the pumpkin and his hat. Leave the background like it is. Just a suggestion. If you then put it in a window it will really pop.

🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️🖤🖤🖤🖤
Better with no grout…just Epoxie…but great lesson for us all…
Unfortunately Welbond does pick up moisture. It takes a long time for it to totally cure.
Correct. That is why its frowned upon for mosaics period. However I was not anticipating the sheer amount of moisture inside the thin set mortar! Then doing a last ditch weldbond wash- already being water based, amplified the absorption for sure.
Idiotically is a word Kenz… and it’s actually an adverb. If you’re making another one, on the next one, use the Ultra clear glue to fastened down the glass pieces. Don’t use the white glue and just use the black grout… freeze your video at 17:58 and look how good it looks with what looks like black grout, even with the clear glass. The moon should be a non-transparent yellow or gold and if you could make the hat a little darker in shade, that should make that G on G really POP… I used my color wheel and those are the colors that ended up coming together… Nice work on your first one…!
No way! Thats all you! Lol. If i do another, the ONLY thing changing is no grout what so ever and epoxy instead like i wanted. And i did use the clear glue to put down the glass pieces! 🖤
@@MakenzieHallie LOL ok Kenz... 12 hours is a lot of time to glue those those glass pieces down - Yikes - I did see you use the Ultra clear... I was just mentioning to also use it. You did a great job btw...
You can stain the grout!
I really liked it without the grout
I have a question not pertaining to this video. Can I use double sided conductive adhesive foil tape as regular foil tape?. I confused. Please help!
Hm. Ya know what Edythe, i straight up dont know!! Lol! Im sorry!!!
Do another one your way!
Yes, next one will be with epoxy for sure!!
What is the exact name of glue I will buy
🌸(?) Could you have used the Epoxy on the Background and used Grout over the Image ?
Jaecy~
I sent you a picture of my very first GOG (glass on glass) I used Stone Coat Resin…
I sent it through messenger
YOu could have definately NOT grouted it! Also you did NOT need to worry about the grout getting under the tiles. Try it! Also, you may not like it because the color of grout. I tend to use charcoal (dark gray).
Yes, no texture on the back of the glass when you do glass on glass.
Please do epoxy!!!!
Hi gorgeous how are you wow ilove your very long Nails the black it very shiny ilove it and you do a great job on your videos love james♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹😘😘😘♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰❤️❤️🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you as always James!
Been fine if you hadn't grouted it. There is nothing wrong changing your mind from your original plan. Sometimes we have to adapt.
Love the detailed info, BUT the very fast monotone speaking lady is stressing me out trying to keep up with her.
Hello, you must be new here. My name is Makenzie, not lady. Thats the first time ive ever heard im too fast and monotone so im not sure how to take it. Sorry? 😂 Hope you still learned something!!
So scary nails🙉🙉🙈🙈
