The other day I was looking for some inspiration and ideas so I was browsing my Pinterest feed, as one does, and I stumbled upon this photo of a space spectacularly decorated with these colourful tiles.<\/p>\n\n\n

I searched for quite a while, almost giving up, before finally discovering the owner: Pallavi Sen<\/a>, who is an interdisciplinary creative from Bombay.

Looking at her \u201cTiles\u201d stories highlights on her Instagram<\/a> page I can see she designed and installed them herself (with a little help from her friends\ud83e\udd17).
I love the playful and cheerful vibe this space exudes and such great inspiration to do something similar.
When decorating my own spaces I have found it super challenging to find just the right tile designs I want.
Here below is another example of imaginative tile application on a large expanse of wall, this time using small square mosaic tiles in different colours to create a custom mural. Unfortunately, I was unable to find the source for this one.<\/p>\n\n\n

These are great examples of how you might decorate a large expanse of wall with tile using either your own hand painted tiles or applying mosaic tiles in a specific pattern to create something original.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You should also look at some wonderful examples of some such applied to floors, as seen here below through the lens of @parisianfloors<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talking about tiles, this reminds me of a creative collaboration I thoroughly enjoyed several moons ago with a handmade cement tile manufacturer in Crete, Tsourlakis Tiles<\/a>, where a few of my designs were made up using this method. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve long been thinking that I would love to actually paint some of my own tiles, but I don’t have a kiln of my own – poor excuse, I know, because I could always find someone to work with….. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also saw an artist painting directly on glazed tiles using Pebeo 150 for Porcelain speciality paints, which I understand to be highly durable and thus suitable for such surfaces. <\/p>\n\n\n

Here also is a video showing you how to use these paints. Of course there are many more videos on YouTube if you want to explore this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
