Susan on Feb 17, 2015You can break up the tiles in pillowcase with hammer or rubber mallet and cover old furniture or wooden chest with them. Then grout. You can do just about anything like a garden tabletop or indoor piece, it will come out beautifully no matter what!!!Helpful Reply

Jori Calvert on Feb 17, 2015I once saw a walkway done with glass bottles. They put the little white lights stringing them together then buried them neck down. It was the most beautiful light walkway I've ever seen. Maybe something like that? Imagination goes a long way. Good luck!Helpful Reply

Barbara Sawyer on Feb 17, 2015You can do a mosaic on an old window, using a small one you can hang it in front of a window, or prop it up. Another great way is to cover a bowling ball, for the garden, although you can't see through it adds a lot of interest to the green plants.Helpful Reply

Jani Wolfe on Feb 17, 2015Find a pattern that you like and do a stained glass window. You can use your mosiac tiles as the four corners to tie into the pattern that you choose.Helpful Reply

Donna on Feb 17, 2015One easy, yet amazing art project - Take a simple picture frame with the glass still in it. Then break your glass and tiles into smaller pieces as described above. Use simple clear tile adhesive to glue the glass and tile pieces on the glass in the picture frame in whatever design you choose. You can either place the pieces very close together and leave it, or grout the piece once it is complete and dried.Helpful Reply

Alisha Dowling on Feb 18, 2015How about a multi pane window? Either framed in lead, or wood frames? Maybe just the outter frame, with regular glass in the center? Could go in any room in the house, or any size.Helpful Reply
