Do you remember the DIY Photo Coaster Tutorial I shared with you back last fall?
Well frugal friend Lori shared a fun new twist on the concept… a Photo Tile Collage!
It’s just stunning… and would make a great, thrifty gift!
Here’s what you’ll do:
- First… you’ll need to complete your Photo Tiles ~ go here for step-by-step instructions.
- After your tiles are finished and dry, you will need to choose a backing.
- Lori chose an 8×10 back of a photo frame {yep ~ just the back}, and cut it to the exact size she needed it to fit the tiles. You can cut it small so none of it shows, or leave the edges as a border ~ it’s up to you!
- If you need to make adjustments, you can also cut the part that stands the picture frame up to where you need it to be.
- Glue your tiles to the frame back.
- Lori used hot glue and e6000. The tiles are heavy, so she definitely recommends using the e6000, too!
- All done! {wasn’t that easy??}
Make one for yourself, or give one as a beautiful, thrifty gift!
Thanks Lori for sharing this fun project!!

I am in L-O-V-E with this idea. We just had family pictures done at the beach and this would be a PERFECT way to display some of the fun photos….
where can you get e6000?
Hi Jenny ~ I believe you can find it at Wal-Mart… and it’s also available on Amazon, too: http://tinyurl.com/e6000-glue
Hope that helps!

I really like this idea. I made the photo coasters for gifts at Christmas and everyone loved them!
My husband also suggested that we get the large size tiles and make a wall hanging.
That’s a great idea, Laura!
