How to Make Mosaic Trees

Instead of topping your table with evergreens, add a little more color by making these mosaic trees! You can select tiles that work with your color scheme.

Step 1: Wash Tiles

Wash mirror tiles in warm water and dishwashing detergent; dry thoroughly.

Step 2: Add Tiles to Bottom of Tree

Place a strip of double-sided tape around the bottom of one tree. Adhere 1/2-in. x 1/2-in. mirror tiles onto the tape in any pattern you desire. Place another strip of tape around the tree close to the top of the tiles you just attached. Adhere tiles onto the tape. Repeat until all but about 1/2 in. at the top of the tree is covered with tiles.

TIP

The number of tiles needed depends on the size of the trees used. To cover one 9-in., one 12-in. and one 15-in. tree, we used about 800 silver 1/2-in. tiles, 200 blue 1/2-in. tiles and 33 silver 1- x 1/4-in. tiles.

Step 3: Add Tiles to Top of Tree

Add tape. Adhere 1-in. x 1/4-in. tiles vertically around the top of the tree. Glue a silver ball ornament on top. Repeat the process with the other two Styrofoam trees.
