Where can I get ceramic house number tile(s)?

Sky King

Hi Everyone. Anyone know offhand where I might procure a house number tile (or tiles) like the ones you see in spain and italy etc? This is the kind of thing I mean.

Tried Woodies. No dice.

You could try making your own, with plain white tiles and "china paint" that you can fire in an ordinary kitchen oven. Make whichever numbers, in whichever colours, you want!!

Do you know anyone going on holidays to Spain/Portugal in the near future, maybe someone could pick them up for you - they're easy to carry

Thanks for the replies.

It crossed my mind briefly alright, though I am not very artistic at all (at least where painting is concerned) so I decided against it as I would likely make a complete balls of it!!

I do actually, but not for another couple of months. I might want to order a pizza delivery in the meantime!! Are they a thing you could easily just buy over there ? Hmm... I suppose they are.

Yeah but the cost of the carriage is high, plus they could get shattered in transit. i f can't buy em ion a shop here I might have to just buy them on ebay.

Absolutely, pretty much every tourist shop would have them , they aren't hard to source
