Hanging Your Photo Tiles

 

1.  The first step to hanging your mix of photo tiles like a pro is to choose the right location. You want to find a spot that gets plenty of natural light so your tiles will look especially vibrant  -this will help to bring out all the colors in your mix photos. 

Think about which room and setting your mix of tiles will look best in. For a bedroom the mood of the mix should be calm and relaxing, something soothing to help rest and relax,  although playful snaps can also be thrown into to the mix. 

For a living room or family room you might want to include more formal or posed shots within the tile mix -to show off those once in a lifetime events and occasions.

Kitchens, bathrooms, hallways or under-the-stair nooks are also excellent places to hang your favorite mix of tiles. They are sure to add interest and fun to those often neglected areas.

You also want to make sure that the surface you’re hanging your tiles on is clean and smooth, as this will help to ensure they stick firmly.

2. Decide on the layout of your mix of photo tiles. Will they be in a grid? A staggered pattern? Maybe you want to get creative and try something completely different. Don’t feel shy to mix and match different tile layouts. Think about the sort of mix of colors, backgrounds and occasion to decide how best your selection will look.

Once your mix of tiles look just right on the layout, use a tape measure to mark the position of each tile on the wall. If you are using a grid pattern, make sure that the marks are evenly spaced.   

Take a step back and check how the layout of tiles looks and take a moment to adjust or mix them up if they don’t look quite right. The right mix and balance of tiles is what you’re after.

3. Now it’s time to start hanging your mix of tiles! If you are working alone, we recommend starting with the center tile and working your way out. If you have a friend helping you, begin with the outermost tiles and work your way in towards the center. 
  

4. Once your mix of tiles are in place, step back and take a look at your handiwork. Make any necessary adjustments until you are happy with the results. 

The great thing about Storyboards is that they can be moved and rearranged according to your growing family or changing needs. So you can mix them up and swap them around to make room for any new additions or to add and include more current snaps into your mix of tiles.
