Tips & Reference:
- I used 6x24 ceramic floor tiles. You can sometimes find boxes really cheap at Lowes, often a discontinued pattern, or an odd box. You can sometimes find white ones that would save you some painting too.
- TIP - Paint the tiles the day before. The paint is much more likely to peel up if you do not let them dry thoroughly.
- I used a variety of paints on the different tiles I made. Surprisingly, Rustoleum spray paint did NOT work well for me. But that may have been because it was too cold outside, or because I didn't let it dry long enough. Martha Stewart Chalk Paint & cheap Apple barrel craft paint both worked well. I tried modge podge over the paint, but I think that made the paint peel more, not less. The key was to make sure the tiles were room temperature when I painted them (not left in the cold garage overnight...) and then let them dry for at least a day. You could also try using Press & Seal as your transfer tape, but once I let them dry long enough, I didn't have any problems with the paint lifting.
