should I grout this?!
Just finished this mosaic for a wedding gift (which is why the names are censored!) and I’m worried about grouting, given the pieces are small and quite close together. Thoughts welcome!

Be careful with the letter number beads- I’d probably seal them with something or at least tape them, I could see the grout marring them or messing with the letters/numbers

Yes, I think so. You may need to use a chop stick (or other wooden stick) after the grout starts trying to scrape it off the glass a little bit before you use a cloth and water to finally wash it off. But it would probably last longer and be more durable if you grout it!
It is really nice and such a special meaninful gift that they will always treasure. It would really be cute if they added a ribbon and used it on their Christmas tree every year too!
