Lay canister lid(s) on paper and
trace along outside edge.
You will use this pattern to lay out your tiles for
placement.
Determine color selections and
lay out tiles, mirror tiles and alphabet letters in desired pattern
on paper. Remember that some of the larger tiles will probably need
to be cut down in size in order to fit within pattern.
When you have the tiles laid out
in the pattern you like, add a dab of glue to back of each tile [and
alphabet letters] and place on lid.
Let glue dry completely
overnight.

Tiffany's Designer Tip: Mosaic always
looks best when you cut some of the whole tiles into quarters or
halves straight or diagonally. The cut pieces always add visual
intrigue to your mosaic design!
