INQUIRE NOW

Imagine having an artist and craftsman bringing your visions to life, transforming your space into a creative oasis.

That's exactly what working with Doodlestones Projects feels like. Bryan brings ten years of hands-on installation expertise alongside a genuine artist's sensibility—the kind that sees potential in a salvaged piece of vintage tile, or knows exactly how a mosaic pattern should move across a wall to feel alive. Every project is a collaboration: your vision, your space, your taste —brought to life with skill and heart.

We work with homeowners and businesses across Mid Missouri, St. Louis, and Kansas City, and we travel for the right project. Whether you're dreaming of a hand-crafted backsplash or a one-of-a-kind mosaic mural, we'd love to help you make it real.

Artistic, One-of-a-Kind Tile Installations for Happy Homebodies & Creative Commercial Spaces

We know your space—whether it’s your home or your business—is both your biggest asset and your creative canvas.

That’s why we go the extra mile to make sure you love your tile installation, for years to come. ‍ ‍

01
Precision

Every cut, every joint, every line — set with intention. Bryan's work spans techniques that demand an exceptionally steady hand — from trencadis mosaics and intricate inlays to trompe l'oeil, integrated ornament, and historic restoration. We don't cut corners, because the details are exactly where the magic lives.

Lifetime Happiness Guarantee

We stand behind every project we complete — because a tile installation should be something you love for decades, not something you settle for. If something ever isn't right, we'll make it right. That's our promise.

02
Care

From our first conversation to the finished install, we're invested in you — not just your project. Bryan draws from his own personal tile collection to help bring your vision to life. And whether you're flipping houses or building out a series of commercial spaces, you'll always have a contractor you can count on.

03
Creativity

No two spaces are the same, and no two projects should be either. We love the part where a client comes in with a rough idea — a color, a feeling, an image on their phone — and we get to help shape it into something real. Whether you're drawn to something classic or something completely unexpected, the best tile projects are always a collaboration.

Bryan Payne

Founder + Tile Specialist

For a decade, Bryan Payne has pioneered an artistic and sustainable approach to tile work. Inspired by beauty and whimsy in the most unexpected places, he incorporates upcycled materials, vintage tiles, and reclaimed pieces of pottery into his trencadis mosaics. His past artistic project, Doodlestones, took him around the globe as he taught his unique approach to rock drawing everywhere from Garvan Gardens to Nepal. He strives to bring the same joy and collaboration to his tile and mosaic work today, whether it’s a custom mural in a home or a historic renovation in a commercial space.
