Terrazzo texture triumph from a timing error
I was installing a small bathroom floor and misjudged the drying time of the base layer. Started embedding the chips too early, and they began sinking unevenly. Had to stop and reassess, which set me back half a day. On a whim, I used a lighter grinder to expose more aggregate, creating a deeper reveal. The finished floor has a rustic, handcrafted look that actually complements the space. Not what I planned, but sometimes mistakes lead to better outcomes.
