DIY Tile Decoration

DIY Tile Decoration 

       I saw the neatest idea, used several different ways on Pintrest, where tile was used as a dry erase board. Through my own experiments, I found out that it doesn't have to be the super shiny tile it can be the slightly textured tile as well. I didn't try the super textured tile. 

      For me this project was a two for one win. I had been trying to find cheap ways to spruce up my bathrooms and I had been searching for way to neatly display the bible verses I was trying to memorize. 




-My supplies, minus some embroidery thread that matched the ribbon I had to add when I figured how hard it was to tie a bow. The tile was .77 a piece, the ribbon was like $2.50,  and I had everything else, so this project cost me under $5. 

-I started by deciding how long I wanted my ribbon, then cutting all three pieces. 

-I cut the ribbon in half, hot gluing the back corners of the tile.

-I then glued the ribbon together to form a point 

I added a bow to cover the overlap of ribbon and I really like the way it turned out. I had to figure out how to tie a bow. This was by far the hardest part for me, I don't tie bows very often. I Googled a bunch of websites, the one I used seems to no longer exist , but this blog has a pretty good step by step.

-After I figured out how to make the ribbon work, this was maybe a 20 minute project, probably less. 

- I hot glued the bow to the point

-last I used my dry erase marker to write the verses I want to memorize 




-My bathroom mirror before. I hated how tacky it looked and how annoying it was when I cleaned. 

-My bathroom now

-They make me so happy to look at! I tried to include a little bit of the shower curtain in the picture so you could see why I chose the colors I did.
