Mickey Heads in Pool with Pics

[jimim]

I haven't been around much cause the summer was taken up with a new pool build that I am contracting myself. Inspired by our love for Disney I needed to include something Mickey in my pool. I saw in the past someone used a plastic mickey head an embedded it in the plaster on the floor. That got my ideas rolling but new there was no way i was putting something into the plaster that would possibly crack or turn color or mess up my plaster job. So I found a custom shop in Florida that has a water jet and sent them pics of what I wanted. 3 weeks later I got my pieces and installed the tile markers and then the plaster company plastered the pool.

I know this is an old string, but wanted to comment on your Mickey tiles...very cool! We are trying to do the exact same thing with our pool remodel. Can you tell me where you had the tiles cut?
