DIY glass tile tree mosaic

If you like crafts and you also have an artistic side you’re definitely going to love this project. Today we’ll show you how to make a glass tile tree mosaic. It’s not difficult, it just requires time and patience. To make one similar to that from the pictures you’ll first have to find a tree picture. Try to find one that you like. It doesn’t have to look that the one from the example.

You’ll also need Mod Podge, a brush, a 11’’ x 14’’ wooden canvas and a silver sharpie marker. First choose the picture and, once you have selected it, cut it into 1’’ squares to fit the tiles. Then apply Mod Podge to each of the tiles. Apply it as well to the mosaic pieces. Let them dry for a while and then add a glossy top coat for more depth and shine. Small bubbles might appear but don’t be alarmed. You can easily pick them with a pin and the problem will be solved.

After this part is done, add another layer of glaze. Then paint the wooden canvas black. Let it dry and mark where the tiles should be. Now the fun part begins. You’ll have to glue the tiles using a ruler. The ruler will help you keep a straight line. Let the tiles dry and the mosaic is complete. You can also add a frame if you like.{found on happyhourprojects}.
