- Inspired by the latest ‘jungle fever’ trend, these kitchen spotters were designed to incorporate this trend into the Shabby Chic style.
- Hints from French-style interior designs often show herbs and greenery in shabby chic homes.
- With its cement/stony background, these realistic images of different herbs will give your kitchen a cosy and charming French cottage feel and look.
- Besides white, the shabby chic style also includes soft, neutral colours such as hues of grey, teal and taupe – these colours have been use in these spotters creating a “greige” look (both grey and beige) which makes it easy to match to both coloured plain tiles.
- These spotters are ideal to create a shabby chic (French cottage) kitchen.
- Would make attractive hangings in an atrium / vegetable garden area as well as in florists and quaint coffee shops.
- This decorative tile is digitally printed with the latest technology which allows for a realistic picture / image of the potted herbs.
- Once printed, the tile is re-fired/baked allowing for the inks to melt into the glaze of the tile thus making these spotters easy to install, clean and maintain.
- For installation of the wall only.
- Ideal to use as individual pictures / paintings
- As there are 3 different herb spotters in one pack, it is recommended to place the lavender spotter in the middle to allow a balanced pop of colour.

How To Install Mosaic Tiles
- The installation surface must be smooth and clean to ensure proper installation.
- It may be necessary to hack the wall to allow the adhesive to be able to set properly.
- Make sure the wall is dry and dust free before applying the adhesive.
- Measure the space in which the mosaic is being installed to determine the best fit for your tile.
- Use a straight edge and level to help you align the tile as you work.
- Construct a grid on the substrate that is equal to nine sheets of the tile.
Tip : Be sure to account for the spaces between each sheet of tile when measuring. It woudl help to dry lay the mosiac tiles on the floor first for you to see where you will be able to install the tiles with minimum cutting.
-
Mix the Pro Grip White Mosaic Fix adhesive.
First coat: apply setting material with the smooth edge of a trowel to a section no larger than one section of the grid.
Second coat: create even ridges in the setting material by “combing” the material with the notched edge of the trowel
Tip : Do not apply any adhesive to the mosaic sheet
Tip : Do not apply any adhesive to the mosaic sheet.
- Most sheets of mosaic have a clear film covering on the front face of the tile. This allows the mosaic design to be seen during installation.
- Apply the back meshed side of each sheet into the adhesive.
- Using a float tool, tap across the surface to adhere the mosaic securely into the adhesive.
Tip : The space between each sheet of tile should equal the space between each individual mosaic tile. Use a spacer that is of equal size.
- It is important to create a secure bond between the tiles and the adhesive.
- Using the float tool tap across the surface to adhere the mosaic securely.
- This also ensures the final exposed plane of the mosaic is consistent and uniform in height.
- This can be a time consuming process, but is important to ensure a professional installation.
- Adjust while the adhesive is still wet.
- Correct any tiles that are uneven and ensure that all gaps are of equal width and height. Do this by cutting through the clear tape and moving tiles with a small trowel.
- Grout can be applied to a clean, dry surface.
- Before applying grout be sure that the mosaic surface is clean and all clear sheets are removed from the tiles.
- Thorough cleaning may involve removing excess adhesive from the mosaic joint with a knife, as well as cleaning off all dust and particles.
- Spread grout from the bottom up in a diagonal direction using a rubber grout applicator.
- The mosaic should be cleaned after the grouting is complete.
- Use a sponge and clean water and scrub in a circular motion, removing excess grout and smoothing all joints. Continue to wipe down the tiles until clean.
