    that looks leatherish, nice, I paint directly on the wall, and even use glue on the wall, I am currently doing a project painting a large flower and gluing silk ones arranged around it, and using wall putting to add more flowers (white putty on white walls), not pic yet, started on an empty white wall.

    I don't know how to fix them to the wall but I'd really like to know where you got the tiles. They are wonderful!

    Having a brick end wall, we had to drill a hole for each tile and place a proper sized plastic plug in each hole,you can then put a screw in and hang your tile. We have left the tiles up now for four years and they have never fallen down, Evan during storms

    A product that comes in the caulking tubes called Gorilla Glue will be best to apply these.Just make sure they are where you want them.When this stuff dries,it is permanent!

    Flatirons Disc Adhesive Extra Large Plate Hanger Set (4 - 5.5 Inch Hangers) - got them on Amazon. About $10 w/free ship for 4 of these large ones. They are amazing. I hung a HUGE ceramic fish with them. They stick to the back of the tiles. You can then put one of those super hooks (look like a "J" and leaves a very small hole) in the wall and hang just about anything heavy with a flat back.

    First of all, your tiles look amazing! Like another person, I'd like to know where you got them, too! Anyway....I'm doing the same thing with tiles. What I'm doing, though, is gluing them to a large board which is about 1/2" thick and very sturdy. Then adding heavy-duty picture hanging hardware and hanging it like a picture.

      I should've known! Every time I see something I really like, it's from somewhere I can't get! Well, the person or persons who made these do beautiful work!

    Emser Tile has some great product for outdoor use. Home Depot also sells a variety of outdoor tile product. I would use the highly decorative ones in a pattern using a more simple one as your base.

    If you like to garden I've seen some pretty cool DIY vertical gardens. Your beautiful tiles can be disbursed in the garden or frame it. This is coming from someone with a big imagination and absolutely no gardening skills!

    You could line them up on a piece of barnwood? Or attach to seperate pieces of barnwood . You could find a vintage picture frame and hang it over the tiles or attach to a mirror. Jay

    You could replicate or modify this pattern/grouping in a ceramics class, and glue hangers on the back. There are limitless ways of hand building slabs and adding textures, colors and design ideas. Connie, Lawrence, KS
