•Featured stone: Eldorado Stone RoughCut in the color “Casa Blanca” •gap sizes in between the stones varied between 1/4” - 1” (we had to chisel off the edges on some of them for a better fit) •used Custom Building Products Prism Ultimate Performance Cement Grout in the color “Snow White” in a QEP piping bag (both from Home Depot) to pipe grout between the stones •NOTE: the grout has a built-in sealer so it is pricier but definitely worth it in the long run •the main key is to overfill the grout lines out past the faces of the stones •let it dry about 10 minutes and then smoothed the grout with our fingers around each individual stone (wait until the grout reaches a play-dough-like consistency: firm enough to hold its shape, but still soft and workable) •NOTE: be sure to push & pack the grout in very tightly around each stone so it has no openings in between the joints after it dries •after the grout firmed up we went back again and smoothed any excess off with our fingers (we didn’t use water because we wanted to keep the grout off of the face of the stones) •in some areas the grout shrunk after it dried so we went back over it a second time to make it fuller For more design & home inspiration follow us @rangerhome_nw 🫶🏼 LTKstorytime LTKHome
