Where can you use mosaic tiles?
Most people use mosaic tiles in rooms such as bathrooms, laundries and kitchens. However, you can definitely use them on walls and floors in any rooms if you want to make a style statement. But if you want to use mosaic tiles on the floor, be sure to check with the retailer that they are robust enough to withstand daily wear and tear from feet and furniture.

Perfect for a statement splashback or feature, these scallop tiles are easy to clean, add interest to an otherwise neutral space, and look amazing when installed correctly.
