Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Tape measure

1. Figure out what type of mosaic tiles you are looking for. Mosaic tiles come in ceramic or glass. They both have unique looks and advantages. Ceramic is a little more popular and inexpensive, but glass mosaic tiles make for great counter tops and backsplashes. Check out some photos of the different types of mosaic tiles on the internet to get a better feel for each one.

2. Measure the area you are planing to tile. Always round down so you have extra tiles later. It's better to have more and not need them than to have less tiles and need more.

3. Browse the internet for mosaic supplies and dealers. There are a wide variety of mosaic sellers on the web. Buying in bulk can help you save a little cash. Mosaicartsupply.com is a great place to find cheap discount mosaic tiles. They carry mosaic tiles of all makes, sizes, and colors.

4. Head to your local arts and crafts supply store. These stores often stock mosaic tiles for mosaic art use. They can also order bulk amounts if you plan on tiling a large area.
