  • Sketch (with a diameter equal to the bottom of the basin);

2. Place the mosaic tiles on the paper according to the sketch until all the paper is covered and you have an idea of how it looks. For each tile, apply glue to the front side of it and glue it upside down on the paper according to the sketch, so the back side of the tile is actually facing up. (The photo does not show this step and it still seems that the front side is facing up. I am sorry for this confusion).

3. After the glue is dry, place the kraft paper with mosaic tile side facing up in the basin. You can oil the inside of the basin to facilitate the release of the cement. Mix together concrete and water in another container as per the instructions of the concrete and pour liquid cement inside the basin to your desired length (about 2.5 to 3 cm).
