Rio pattern - trim?

10 years ago

I love this mosaic. Can it be used as trim in a bathroom? I am thinking of an eight inch ribbon around the room. My question is how would a straight line be drawn with the wavy pattern? Thank you.

Yes, it can be used, although there will be considerable waste per sheet. Each sheet would have to cut twice, top and bottom. This requires a highly skilled craftsman that is familiar with cutting paper faced mosaics in a wet saw.
