*Additional tips on planning:
Production of unique tile murals based on the customer’s image selection is our specialty.

All images must ‘bleed’ over the edges of the tile mural during printing, resulting in a loss of 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the image on each side. We enlarge or reduce the size of the image you provide to conform to the dimensions of the mural size you select.

After determining the approximate size of your mural, select a tile size (4.25, 6, or 8 inches) which evenly divides into that size. This will avoid cutting the tiles to fit the mural area.

If the mural size you select does not have the same width/height ratio as the image you select, we must crop the image to match. For example, if you want a mural twice as tall as it is wide but the image you select is square, some of the image’s width will be cropped out. Here is an example: Crop Image to Fit
