Description
Our Vision Quest Glass Mosaic Tile Mix is a 1-lb assortment of vitreous glass tile in a kaleidoscopic mix of amplified landscape colors. Referencing the desert landscape, this assortment includes sage, sky blue, sienna, orange, pink, and purple.
This 1-lb mix combines Morjo™ Vitreous tile with smooth, low-grain Lojee-Nojee™, creating a vivid range of color and texture that samples both brands. Compare to our Green, Pink Purple, or Brown Morjo™ Vitreous assortments. Combine Vision Quest with these assortments or add bags of individual colors to enhance the color range for your project.

Product Coverage
Each pound covers 0.69 square feet assuming a standard grout spacing of 1/16 inch. To cover 1 square foot, 218 tiles are required. Note that cutting tiles generates some scrap, so you may want to budget 5% extra.
Compatibility
Because the 3/4 inch size (20mm) and 1/8 inch nominal thickness (4mm) is industry standard, you can combine these tiles with a wide variety of brands.
Cutting Glass Tile
We recommend the Mosaic Glass Cutter for cutting all types of glass mosaic tile including these. Note, however, that there is a limit to how small they can be cut. Due to their tapered edges, small pieces will tend to tip over. We advise cutting halves and quarters and diagonal triangles, and not much smaller than that. For creating outlines and other details, check out our Rectangle Border Tiles or our Outliners Mosaic Sticks™.
Mounting Tile
Weldbond adhesive works well for mounting dry indoor mosaics. However, to permanently set outdoor and wet mosaics, use thinset mortar.
Use in Mosaic Art
The affordability, ease of use and durability of these tiles makes them suitable for outdoor projects such as garden décor. The pigment quality also lends itself equally well to photorealistic mosaic images and fine art.
