NEW BEGINNINGS: DYI TECHNIQUES AND IDEAS TO REFRESH YOUR HOME WITH MOSAIC TILES
(3 min read) With the new year upon us, some of you may feel the itch to change or upgrade their environment. Mosaics are a fun and effective option to add colors and a very personal touch so we wanted to share some ideas on how to incorporate them in various ways and, if you’re adventurous enough, to create your own.

Choosing a design: Choose something simple like an image from a coloring book or an abstract pattern that isn’t too intricate. Keep the size of the various segments of your image or pattern in mind: the smaller the areas to be filled, the smaller the necessary pieces have to be. Starting with patterns that have large segments will make it easier for you. Here are some free patterns on Pinterest to get you started.
Tracing the design on the backing: If you’re artistically inclined you can trace the design by hand, otherwise blow up the image to the desired size, and use carbon paper to trace the outline.
The Materials: The most fun part of mosaics is the large variety of materials to choose from. The easiest are tiles you can cut into the desired size with tile nippers but feel free to explore with pebbles, broken plates, china, jewelry, or anything that catches your eye.
The basic method can be applied to a variety of objects and surfaces. Here are some starting ideas.




Table Tops
