- What tools do you need to get started with mosaics? this first instalment of the series looks at what tools you need to get before you can really start with mosaics.
Amazon is by far the best place i know of for getting mosaic supplies at a good price:
Wheeled nippers: amzn.to/321Vw3N
Standard nippers: amzn.to/2C7Bmu4
White grout powder: amzn.to/2Z4bIPP
Coaster blanks: amzn.to/2ZF5Bkh
For tiles try ebay or amazon, and if you are lucky you might have a good local supplier or art store that get get mosaics for you.
More than a few of my classmates back in high school frequently turned in beautiful mosaics as projects for Latin class and I always wondered how it was done. I've finally decided to learn!
Auckland grammar?
I have a Latin project for art and design and im gonna do the mosaics as well
Awesome video, just what I was looking for to get started. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks !
Wow! This video is so educational for a beginner like me! Can’t wait to get started and to watch the next video. Thank you so much
Excellent video and extremely informative! Thank you so much. I’m just getting started in mosaic.
Thank you for the information. This has always been something I wanted to try and I think it's time! Next video here I come!
Great video! I have found that standard nippers can be used alongside a oil cutter-scour on any type of glass as the oil cutter traces a line that the standard nipper can break and it is really good for accurate and long cuts.
Wish I have seen this vedio before I started my mosaic pot. Lots of great tips!
I am curious about learning this art. The video is VERY informative and helpful and answered questions I didn't even think about. Great beginner video!
Wow…simple and straight to the point. First video I came across was the best video lol. Thank you. Can’t wait to get started.
Thank you for the new hobby!!!!

I’ve been wanting to mosaic ever since feeling mesmerized by the cathedrals in Italy a few years ago. Thank you for your clear instructions. I have an 80 year old desk that means the world to me, and I’m going to spruce her up with tiles! Your videos are unleashing my passion. Thank you!
Hope it turned out nice

Missed opportunity to say "back-grout" 😂
Love the video!
Very helpful! Thank you!
Perfect introduction....... thank you !
The video is very informative to me because at first, I thought there is only 1 type of nipper to cut all of the mosaic tiles but I was wrong. There are 2 types of nippers to cut the specific tile: the wheeled nipper and the standard nipper. I am so interested in this kind of art because I am really amazed at the outcome of the art.
very formative. thank you!
Very informative thank you❤
Great this was extremely helpful and clear
this was excellent, thank you. I look forward to watching the rest of the series.
Just what I needed to learn
I've been wanting to create mosaics for a long time now but never really had the confidence to try it. I have decided to have another look and found your video. It is a fantastic video explaining all the basics for beginners. You have a lovely, clear, warm voice and explain everything in detail. Thank you so much for putting it up 😊 I'm now looking forward to payday ❤
Auckland grammar?!!
Totally agree with andreawhitehead7770 as iv had the exactly the same problem with confidence as I’m a full time wheelchair user from the UK that spends mostly there time in doors & struggles to find things to do with there time during the day so thank you for making me so motivated 😊
Very useful for a beginner
This was very Handy and useful. Good Video and Keep up the good Work..
Thank you. Very informative!😊👏👏
Very helpful video
Thanks.
wonderful
SUPER USEFUL THANK YOU
Thank you!
That's a great video, thank you ! If we want to make mosaic for the exterior (on the walls of my house for example), what kind of background can I use to put the tiles on ?
Professional Mosaics are difficult to make. It takes a lot of time and accuracy. So your trial is great exercise. LG
Thank you very much 👏❤🙏
Thanks for sharing! :)
Yes I liked your voice and tone. Thanks for a clear and pleasing to the ear video. On to the next...
Brilliant tutorials! Thanks so much. Just wondered where do you get the mirror blanks from? Xxx
Great video. I wish I had have seen it years ago,
Mam I search many tym this art tq for updated the class ...💗
excellent vid!
I think I have just fallen in love with your work.
Splendid
Have a gardening Mosaic glass table that fell over and the in side broke through a metal frame and the back itself is glass too! Mosaic on glass? Anyway, I was going to throw it in the trash but it looks so awesome I'm going to try a piece of wood-board on it's back with grout to save it thank you...
really helpful :)
great video
Great video! Any chance you can provide the link where you get red, blue and white mosaic glass for the piano/music art?
Thank you. How should I prepare a tile or glazed pot for mosaic's please?
Very nice
Great video! Can you please tell me where to get the recommended products in your video in the US Amazon? Thank you.
Super!
I want a pool with a mosaic tile design. Maybe a little area with my me and my kids original designs lol. In the future
I love your accent.
So do I apply my glass tiles first and then grout over them? I'm using mirror mosaic so I don't want to grout to fog the glass. Will it wipe away well?
Hi I made coasters and I put glass tiles and I color grout smooth when it all drys can I put Resin after it all drys over the tiles?
Hi,
If I'm using old ceramic plates for my project does this change anything?
So pretty
Thanks. I have just started mosaic research to repair an old mosaic pictureI purchased online. Stop by the St. Louis Basilica if you want to see mosaic art.
Great video. I just found this video. Will this work on styrofoam balls?
Can you talk about the mesh/netting that’s shown briefly in the video? When is that used?
Good voice. Good voice
I'm very new to beginning Mosaics, but I'm about to try a massive project. I've been thinking about doing it for a while now, and just purchased my very first Mosaics. Plus I'm thinking about also making my own. The projects I have seen doing this cost thousands to buy, so I thought I can just make my own for a fraction of the cost, plus I think I can do a way better job. With so much more details. My project is going into my dream home as well, so it has to be great. I'm nervous, but excited too. Thanks for amazing video.
I'd probably never do this but if I ever live in my own house with a big bathroom, I'd make an ocean picture on the wall and floor.
thank you for a very informative and clearly communicated introduction to tiling that is fun! Great job! Your work is beautiful as well! Jesus Christ God the Son loves you all sooo much and you are all very precious to HIm !
I see most people use grout is that ok and heard the powder stuff is not safe for lungs
I have A Mosaic It has a sun and Moon
Wdym “fighting grouting”?
PVA is not strong enough to hold stones
I'm an artist, that doesn't do any more art work. This makes me want to make mosaics. I just don't know what I'm doing
@Duncan Marcellus I heard that site is a scam
👨💻👩💻
The Spanish Italians Portuguese & Arabis r the best at this sort of stuff
neighbour...
What is the adhesive grout product that you mention is good for doing projects with kids? I looked online and thinset came up but it doesn't look like what you were using in the video.
