Did you choose standard brickies mortar, or go with brighton lite yellow or white sand? We really like the overall look of your bricks.

I think you get ten sets. The blue, you wet and wipe over and then the white you leave dry and it comes up perfect. I use it for our mirrors, in the shower and the glass splashback in the kitchen They are GREAT!!! I’m curious about how you went with this.
