Mosaic Tiles

At the heart of every mosaic art kit is a selection of mosaic tiles which can be made from glass, stone and ceramic. These materials give you different effects. For example blue and green translucent glass pieces can add classic elegance to your projects. Multi coloured tiles are available to create lively and dynamic patterns.

The selection in these kits gives you endless artistic freedom. You have options from traditional ceramic tiles to modern glass pieces – so you can create art that reflects your personal style.

Adhesives and Grout

For building and finishing your mosaic, you need to choose the right adhesives and grout. Found in kits is Weld Bond which is a good adhesive that works with glass and vitreous tiles – so it’s good for most mosaic projects. If you’re making outdoor pieces or items that will be exposed to moisture use thin set mortar for its strength. Be careful when applying to keep grout lines clean.

When you get to the grouting stage and filling in the gaps between your tiles, grout is important to get a neat finish for your project. Regular grout is recommended as it’s forgiving so if you need to make changes it’s easier than with epoxy. Applying this around each tile in your mosaic project takes time: allow to dry so not only to seal but to fully enhance your art.

Extra Tools

Mosaic craft kits have extra items besides mosaic tiles, adhesives and grout to make your crafting session more enjoyable. Gloves, sponges and mixing tools are included to make your workspace safe and efficient.

Safety in mosaic art is reflected in these kits by including disposable gloves. These extra tools are to make the process easier and so you can get into your art without any hassle.
