    Impressive with fresh, new ideas! I love your combinations of materials, colors and textures. Are you using an epoxy finish for some of your table tops?

    These are what i like to call" My random free style mosaic"( had to name it something:)..) So this is all set in grout,I have been using a brush on epoxy layer on the top ,this gives it a sealing finish & easy to clean...Iv'e seen the epoxy finish at bars and restaurants for years on their wooden tables and bar tops.
