Custom Photo Mosaic: Prices, Sizes and How It Works (2026)
A custom photo mosaic at Stitchi Studio costs between €49.95 and €207.95, depending on the size. You upload a photo, we turn it into a personal pixel design, and you rebuild your photo step by step with colored mosaic tiles on transparent base plates with a numbered grid. No paint, no needle, no thread — and you don't need any drawing or painting talent. In this article you'll find the complete price table, all sizes, what's in the kit and exactly how it works.
How does a custom photo mosaic work?
You make a custom photo mosaic in three relaxing steps. You don't have to sketch or calculate anything — we do that for you. You build.
- 1. You upload your photo. Choose a photo you love: a portrait, your pet, a family moment or a beautiful place. You upload it right on the product page when you pick your size.
- 2. We create your pixel design. We turn your photo into a personal pixel design: a numbered grid where every spot gets a color. Your kit includes this design as a clear building instruction.
- 3. You build with tiles. You place the colored mosaic tiles one by one on the numbered base plates — tile by tile your photo grows. Calming, meditative and surprisingly addictive.

Which size suits you?
Not sure about the size? A quick guide to help you choose:
- 25×25 cm (€49.95) — the entry size. Perfect for one clear subject, like a portrait or your pet. Quick to finish and ideal for trying mosaic for the first time.
- 25×50 cm (€96.95) — an elongated panel, lovely for an upright portrait or a horizontal landscape.
- 40×40 cm (€103.95) — a square statement with a lot more detail. Popular for family and group photos.
- 50×50 cm (€192.95) — a large square with plenty of detail; a real eye-catcher on the wall.
- 40×80 cm (€207.95) — the largest, most detailed panorama, built up from several base plates.
Rule of thumb: the more fine detail in your photo (for example several faces), the bigger your size can be. A larger grid simply holds more nuance.
Mosaic, diamond painting or something else?
The technique is similar to diamond painting — you place colored elements on a numbered grid — but it isn't the same. With mosaic art you place sturdy, colored mosaic tiles on transparent base plates. With diamond painting you press small round or square "diamonds" onto an adhesive canvas. And it's not classic tile mosaic with cement either: this is a clean, gift-ready DIY kit without the mess. Want to see the options side by side? Read mosaic vs. diamond painting, and feel free to compare our other lines too, such as color by numbers or our classic custom photo cross stitch kit.
New to mosaic? Here's how to start well
You don't need any experience. Work from top to bottom or from corner to corner, stick to the numbered grid and give yourself the calm — the beauty is precisely in the slow, mindful building. In our complete beginner's guide we explain step by step how to read the grid and place the tiles neatly.
