- Break your tiles, ceramic plates, glasses or any other material you plan to use in your mosaic inside a plastic bag.

Accordingly, how do you seal a mosaic bird bath?
Apply a few coats of a tile and grout sealer to your mosaic saucer. Wait another 24 hours or so for the sealer to set. Spray a clear protective coating onto the sealed saucer; this will ensure that the entire birdbath is fully waterproof and will be able to withstand the elements.
Similarly, how do you seal outdoor mosaic? To protect objects from outdoor elements, apply two coats of tile and stone-floor sealer to the surface of the mosaic garden ornament. Apply the sealer with a small paintbrush; do this outdoors for better ventilation. Let the first coat soak in for 10 to 15 minutes before brushing on the second coat.
