About your tiles:
All mosaic tiles are hand-cut by us from natural Greek marble. Some colors (like red) are made from granite. Each piece is unique and handcrafted!
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1: START WITH THE EYES
Begin by placing the mosaic tiles for the cat's eyes.
STEP 2: COMPLETE THE FACE
Use triangle-cut tiles to fill in the face area from the neck upwards. Triangle tiles work perfectly for the curved facial features.
STEP 3: CREATE THE OUTLINE
Place colored mosaic tiles around the outline of the cat - right side and left side from the neck down.
STEP 4: FILL THE BODY WITH WHITE TILES
Fill the remaining body area with white mosaic tiles.
How to apply each tile:
- Pick up one tile at a time
- Apply a SMALL amount of glue to the bottom of the tile
- Press the tile gently onto the wooden base
- IMPORTANT: Use very little glue - only what you need! Less is more.
Working with square and triangle tiles:
- Use square tiles for flat, straight areas
- Use triangle tiles for curved areas - when square tiles meet at an angle, they create a triangular gap. Fill these gaps with triangle-cut tiles
- Carefully select the tile that fits best in each space
STEP 5: DRYING TIME
- Let your mosaic cat dry for at least 12 hours
- Drying time depends on room temperature - warmer rooms dry faster
- Do not move or touch the cat while drying
CLEANING & TIPS:
If glue gets on the tiles:
Use a toothpick to carefully remove excess glue while still wet
If glue gets on your hands:
Wash with soap and water
Important tips:
- ✓ Work on a clean, flat surface
- ✓ Take your time - there's no rush!
- ✓ Don't use too much glue
- ✓ Keep tiles evenly spaced
- ✓ Let the glue dry completely before handling
STEP 6: DISPLAY YOUR ARTWORK
Once completely dry, attach the included wall hook to hang your beautiful mosaic cat on the wall, or display it on a shelf!
