Mosaic tiles keep getting thinner & thinner πŸ˜„
Its virtually impossible to set some of these accents evenly with other tiles

Here are 3 ways to go about it:

1. Use a 1/4" backer board πŸ‘ This is my personal favorite, it's easy to cut & set with such a ridged backing. It is especially helpful with very thin mosaic tile like these:

2. Use Schluter Kerdi Membrane πŸ’₯ This is the thinnest application to set tiles on. Very helpful with 1/4" thick mosaics
πŸ’₯Schluter Kerdi Band comes in 3 different widths:

3. Use a strip of an uncoupling mat πŸ‘Š If you use ditra or similar mats for your tile floors, you usually have plenty left over for this
