    There are mosaic tiles in that style. This is one example. Search all of the websites that carry mosaic tile for backsplashes.

  • Find a stencil would be the easiest. 47 years ago, my mom did this as an accent on one of my bedroom walls. She used a saucer from a tea cup and penciled on the wall, floor to ceiling freestyle. She then went back and painted the outline. It looked awesome.


    Here is one, but there are many more. Visit your craft and hobby stores to see what they have to offer. You can also order on line too, just read the descriptions carefully to determine the size you want.

    Hi. The first thing I thought of is water transfers, or decals. Ebay has a nice selection. But you'll have to seal it.

    I don't mean to assume you don't know your way around Ebay, so I'm sorry in advance. Type in one word at a time either decal or water transfer. Off to the right on a smart phone you slide from the right to open a screen to give you options, like free s&h, buy now, which country you want to buy from, and price you want to pay.

    In your space bar for example type..3×5 decals.. than make your choices.

    If your on a comp it'll already be on your screen, I think to the left.

    I know I get wordy, I just hate it when someone is not giving enough detail. 😄

    Have fun, it'll be beautiful.
