How to Upcycle a Heart Candy Box with Mosaic Tiles

Trace the shape of the box on a tile sheet and be sure to include partial tiles. Spread tile adhesive on the box lid and press tiles into wet glue. Allow the piece to dry overnight. Spread grout over the top of the box and make sure it gets into the grooves between the tiles. Wipe away the excess and use a wet tile to clean the surface. Once the tiles and grout are dry, add any desired emebellishments to the piece.
