This collection of SPECIALTY DO-DADS includes a variety of fancy little ceramic and glass pieces — about two cups-worth in a range of colors and styles — to embellish your mosaic. Your shipment might contain pieces to make a border, or an eye-catching detail or focal point. And by the way, shipping costs to your U.S. address is included in the price!

If you’ve ever made mosaics with me, in my studio or at a mural site, or watched my mosaic how-to videos on YouTube, then you have a general idea of what kinds of tile I collect. The nature of salvaging materials is that my supply is constantly changing, so I can’t show you the exact pieces or even the precise colors you will get. However, if you’re open to a bit of adventure and loads of possibilities, this SPECIALTY DO-DADS collection will delight you.

Note that the bits you receive may not all be the exact same thickness. Also, because the origin of most of the pieces is unknown, I can’t guarantee that all of it will be suitable for all extremes of weather. My motto is that making something beautiful, even if it does not last an eternity in a state of perfection, is better than not making anything. See what you can do to brighten up your world!

A little background: More than half of my 20+ years making mosaics have been spent scrounging, dumpster-diving, politely asking for, and stumbling upon troves of salvaged tile for use in large-scale, usually under-funded, community mosaic murals. I’ve developed a knack for tile collecting (and I share some of my tips here). I’m making my stash available to you, in case you don’t share my love of salvage yards, don’t have one nearby, or can’t afford the time it takes to scrounge around for beautiful, functional, ceramic mosaic tile.

See separate listings for warm colors, cool colors, neutral colors, and hand-cut mirror pieces. 🤓
