That is Fantastic!!! Anyway you could put together a DIY sheet with materials, measurements, and instructions for us? I would love to make something like that, but I am useless when it comes to wood work.
Thanks!

Thanks! My boyfriend Matt actually did most of the technical details of the dimensions. I was kind of "artistic director" and worker bee. I can ask if he'd be willing to do a DIY but I highly recommend the "Crossfire" instructions. That's what I based this off of

The slate was about $22 for 10 tiles. I used 8 in the making of this. We actually installed the tiles like a normal tile floor. Hardibacker was attached to the wood using "liquid nails" and then we laid morter down, then the tiles, then after that had time to dry we grouted.

Hope that helps!
