Mosaic Tiles & Supplies

When I first starting creating mosaics, buying supplies meant bidding for them on eBay. Now, there are tons of great sites out there for mosaic tiles, nippers, surfaces, and grouts. Here are a few of my favorites.

MosaicArtSupply.com
One of my favorite mosaic supply shops, Mosaic Art Supply carries a large line of mosaic tiles, and has really good prices. Their usual inventory includes tiles of ceramic porcelain, stone marble, and millefiori; as well as metallic iridescent and vitreous glass. This site also carried tumbled beach glass, smalti, grouts, glues, tools and unfinished tables that are ideal for mosaics.

MosaicTheWorld
This site has some really cool and unique stuff. Instead of just the usual selection of glass tiles, MosaicTheWorld.com offers handmade tiles such as cats, fish, hearts and more, all of which are glazed and kiln-fired. My absolute favorite thing they offer are Signature Tiles - for $30, you can get 30 custom tiles with your own signature to incorporate into your artwork. Fantastic.

The tiles on this site rock. Glitter, pearl, metallic and transparent glass tiles are just the tip of the iceburg, you can also order custom blends, and accessories like layout grids. Very cool.

With a huge selection of mosaic supplies, Mosaic Tile Supply also has some of the most unique and coolest stuff around. One of my particular faves is the Iridescent Vitreous Mosaic Tiles. Offered in black gold, or Indigo (I've ordered both), these tiles are gorgeous. Also of interest is the polished abalone and vintage italian tiles.

Most notable here are the Prism glass mosaic tiles - in 4 sizes, and five colors, these tiles are awesome. Mosaic Tile Supplies also moonstone iridescent glass and stainless steel tiles - both of which are very cool and unique.


MonsterMosaics.com

Monster Mosaics offers a large selection of mosaic tiles, including glass shapes and round tiles. Among my favorites is their metallic Venetian glass tiles. This site also carries a lot of mosaic surfaces, such as picture frames and tables, as well as the usual mosaic supplies.
