- Ep. 197 1/2 BONUS: INSTALLING THE LANDSCAPE OF DUNWOODY MOSAIC!
Hey Everyone! Welcome to my studio!
My name is Julie Mazzoni and I will be focusing on The Landscape of Dunwoody mosaic. It is a 36 foot long, 161 square foot mosaic going in a niche on a busy street corner in Dunwoody, GA. I am partnering with mosaic artist Jennifer Freeman. We are using glass and porcelain tile with thinset and silicone. Our substrate is Hardie Backer With Hydro Defense Technology Fiber Cement Waterproof Backer Board. In today's video, we are installing the mosaic!
0:05 It's Go time!!!
0:22 Driving to the job site, I explain our 3 day installation plan. Today we will have an installer helping us get the panels on the wall. Then we will need to patch the holes and seams. The third day will be grouting. Our schedule depends on the weather.
1:10 I've arrived and we need to unload the panels, with panel 12 on top of the heap.
1:20 I show the banner that needs to come down.
1:42 We have a generator to help mix up the thinset. Our installer, Russell is mixing all the thinset and prepping the wall with a notched trowel. Jennifer and I are moving the panels and prepping the backs with more thinset.
2:16 The first one is up! It is panel 12.
2:30 The bottom of panel 11 goes up. Jennifer checks the spacing. Then the top goes on.
3:34 They are going up pretty quickly, but we have to make sure everything is lined up and fits.
4:30 Russell is pre-drilling a hole for a concrete screw to pull the panel tighter to the wall. Then he screws the panel in.
5:20 We unload the other half of the panels from my car while Panel 7 is going up.
6:07 Update on how it's going and the weather.
6:58 Panel 4 going up.
7:08 Jennifer has started patching some of the seams.
7:45 I show how I patch a tiled seam.
8:28 Panel 3 is going up. We're almost to the end!!!
9:19 Russell cuts a sliver off of the end panel so they will all fit. Panel 1 is installed and Russell is finished.
9:53 Jennifer and I focus on patching the seams and holes. We thought this would have to happen on a different day, but we were able to get all the pieces in before the rain came!
10:38 Not even a week later, the weather cooperated with us and we were able to come back and grout.
10:54 Jennifer is taping off the ledge so we don't drop grout on it. I give the mosaic a look over to see if we missed any tiles. We have to also grout the edge all the way around.
12:25 I show my top seam grouting technique. Jennifer has the bottom. We are sharing the middle.
13:37 I'm excited because the seams are blending in so nicely!
14:47 A quick look at our beautiful seams.
14:53 We are on the homestretch, down at Panels 1, 2 & 3.
15:17 TA DA! We've just finished up 6 hours of grouting!!!
15:43 The black tape marks where the seams are.
That's Putting It Together, Bonus Ep. 197 1/2. Thanks for watching. See you next time!!!

Wow! Wow! Wow! All the panels finally together and they look magnificently magnificent! Congratulations to both you and Jennifer for a huge undertaking done well. The wall is awesome! Thank you for sharing all the steps you took from beginning to end. ❤❤❤
Our pleasure! What a relief that all the steps worked!
It wasn't until I saw you assembling the project onto the wall that I realize the enormity of the project you two finished. Just seeing the individual panels in your studio was misleading. This was a feat of beautiful artistic accomplishment. Congratulations. The community will enjoy this for years to come.
Wow, thanks!
Astonishing. All should see this lovely installation of a lifetime.

What a job!!! Amazing teamwork! It is absolutely beautiful. How blessed you are to be able to do something like this. Really good job! Thank you for adding beauty to this world and doing it so well!
Thank you so much! I'm feeling very blessed lately!
Apart from being totally beautiful, what a feat of logistics to have so many separate panels fit perfectly and align. So satisfying to see everything look so seamless, years down the line people will wonder how it was made and think you built it in place!
Lol. Maybe they'll go back and pull the ancient videos to watch.
@@mazzonimosaics8222 the town should put a plaque next to it with a QR code link to the videos 😁
I’ve enjoyed watching every step of this project! You ladies must be so proud of this. It is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much!
You all have done Dunwoody proud! Looking forward to seeing this in person.

Its looking so beautiful, all the hard work paid off! Stunning, I never saw such a large mosaic besides the ancient ones. You must be very relieved that it did fit so perfectly at the seams. The locals should be very proud of having it there. Thanks to the perfect helper too.
Thank you so much! Cheers!

Absolutely gorgeous! Congrats, ladies, on the completion of an amazing project. Hope the city will have a celebration of this amazing piece! It has been a joy watching the two of you putting it together. Bet you are going to like going back to making something just 'a little bit' smaller.
Thank you so much! I had a little break and I'm about to start another good sized mosaic project!
Absolutely beautiful. Congratulations! Loved watching the process. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Spectacular work! ❤ loved being brought along for the Dunwoody journey.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@mazzonimosaics8222 wondering if you might explain the costs to purchase, the best manufacturers and energy efficiency with the operations of a stained glass kiln. I have a jewelry kiln and it costs a fortune to run.. also no program so, I lose a lot of glass after the annealing.
I wasn't really looking for a kiln when I came across a great deal on a used kiln. One big selling point was that my kiln does not require a special outlet. I did not really research best manufacturers or energy efficiency. I am very amateur when it comes to fusing and this project came together because I was doing the same thing over and over.
Очень красиво! Браво! Сколько работы! ❤
Thank you!
Yayyyy! Amazing! Well done ladies!!! 💕
Thank you!! 🎉
Congratulations you’ve both worked so hard on this and I hope to see you both do more projects together and apart in your community. Take time to reflect on this project and to celebrate with your family and community. Thank you both for sharing your passion and talents with us all I may never get to America to see it but you’ve inspired me here in Australia on the other side of the world to you.thank you
Emma, thank you so much! I hope you can make a mosaic impact in your community!

I"ve been following from the UK, so, sadly, am unlikely to ever visit and see the finished project . But it's been amazing to watch and such a great piece of street art at the finish. You must be really proud. Can't wait to see your next project however big or small. Good luck.
Thank you! You are too kind.
Great work ladies it came together perfectly. Did you screw it into the wall along with the thinset? Quite a project and accomplishment, very proud and happy for the two of you. 💕💕🎶🎶
Thanks so much!
This wouldn’t happen to be Dunwoody, GA would it? I would love to go see it if it is.
Yes! On the NE corner of Womack and Chamblee Dunwoody Road.
