How Do You Create A Mosaic Kitchen Backsplash?
Creating a mosaic kitchen backsplash is an easy home project that will liven up your kitchen. You can use glass tile, ceramic tile, or less expensive recycled materials such as broken china plates found at garage sales. Be sure to choose colors that work well with your kitchen decor, thinking towards the future because once installed the mosaic kitchen backsplash will be there to stay! To create a template, measure the area of your kitchen backsplash and transfer the measurements to the piece of cardboard. Make sure you include any electrical outlets or switches. Cut the template out and fit it into the backsplash area, adjusting it until it fits absolutely perfectly. Break the ceramic tiles with the tile snips, creating even-sized pieces. Lay the template on the floor and arrange the tile pieces on it at least 1/4 inch apart in a pattern that compliments your decor. This will be your guide as you glue the pieces to your backsplash. Wipe down the backsplash area with a sponge cleaning
