How to Order Beauty and the Beast
Ordering is easy.You can also request an invoice. Since international shipping varies so much, you'll want to do this if you are not in the U.S..
The cost of your sample tile will be subtracted from the shipping costs of your completed order.
How to Care for Your Tile
You can clean ceramic tiles with any household non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth or sponge.
Installing Your Tile
Laying out your tile in order will make installation easier. The back of each tile is marked by panel and tile: Beauty and the Beast, panel 1, tile 1.
Use only unsanded grout when setting your tile.
We used the fairy tale panels on our stair risers with black slate background tile at two panels per 30-inch wide riser.
