This looks really awesome! Great creativity and your babies are going to LOVE it! Quick question. What brand and type of grout did you use? I would very much like to try a background with grout. I love how realistic it appears. Also, I was chatting with a painter and he said that high quality acrylic paint for say bathrooms (behr's) is waterproof after drying and putting on 2 or more coats. Has anyone else tried using a background with only acrylic paint to seal it? I like the idea of grout then just painting several layers of paint. Seems logical to me.

the grout is just unsanded grout from home depot, whatever brand they carry think its called Polyblend. As far as that bathroom paint, the question is if its non toxic? If it's made for a bathroom i wouldnt be surprised if it has some kind of mold and mildew blockers in it. I use non toxic acrylic craft paint and the Shields All which is a non toxic acrylic sealer. Shields All is not waterproof but is water resistant so stuff that's going to be under water 24/7 365 you'd want to seal in silicone or pond sealer or something along those lines
