How To Frame A Set of Tiles


This is the frieze of tiles I made last summer for the Jose Show. They were bought by someone who wanted to have them framed rather than set onto a wall. Framing several tiles is harder than just the one tile like this one. In this case the set of 15 tiles have to be fixed with epoxy resin to a back board, without grout. The surrounding frame is used in the correct way (not back to front, as in framing a single tile). The frame rebate is just under the edge tiles; the center tiles are resting on a smaller piece of hardboard to which they have all been glued. A second hard board is fixed to the back of the frame.
