How can I use Millefiori in my mosaic?
Millefiori is a great feature within your mosaic; its beauty is in its detail. It’s great for adding texture, colour and pattern to your design. Using the indirect method they can be pressed individually into your adhesive, a set of tweezers coming in very handy to ensure your pattern remains top side up! If you’re after a completely flat surface, use the direct method of mosaics; just make sure your Millefiori is adhered well before transferring them to the adhesive (you don’t want any falling off). When it comes to grouting make sure you give these beauties some added attention so they don’t get hidden under any grout.
