Did you know you can use your leftover tile adhesive/thinset to make tesserae for your mosaics? Simply spread the tile adhesive out onto some plastic and let it dry. You can then cut it up into smaller pieces. I usually use a hammer and hardie to do this, but if you’d spread it out thin enough, you’ll be able to use nippers as well. In this video I mixed up different shades of green to make tesserae for a particular project, but you can use the technique with leftovers too. If you’d like more ti

I use various tools when working with slate. Here I’m using a spokeshave blade to split the slate. You could also use a chisel. In fact you just need some kind of thin blade that you can drive into the slate to split it! One of the fun parts about splitting slate is seeing what’s inside. The surfaces on this piece were particularly gorgeous! If you’d like to learn more about how to prepare slate to use in mosaics, I cover this in my Slate Mosaic course at Mosaic Arts Online.

Want to add a more textured surface to your mosaic? One way to do this is to place all the pieces in one section at an angle. You’ll need to use tile adhesive/thinset to do this as it will enable the pieces to stay sitting at the angle you place them at. Here I’m using a mix of materials, including smalti (glass), porcelain tile and slate, to add more interest and create the effect of a wildflower meadow. This video features footage from my new Slate Mountain Landscape course, where you can lear

The edges of your mosaic can sometimes be a vulnerable area, particularly when you are setting slate on edge, so here’s a tip to help you create a neat and secure edge. 1.

Use your palette knife to smooth away any adhesive that has oozed over the edge and spread it part way up the sides of the pieces t
