as Mike ‘Pomax’ Kamermans
suggested, the best way would be detect mouse click and add item dynamically. You can customize the width and height of items by assigning values to item_width and item_height.

var item_width=40;
var item_height=40;
var added_items=[];
$(function(){
      $('.grid').on('click', function(e){
      var x = e.pageX - $(this).offset().left;
      var y = e.pageY - $(this).offset().top; 
      var item=$('<div class="item"></div>');
      var left=Math.floor(x/item_width)*item_width;
      var top=Math.floor(y/item_height)*item_height;
      var position={ 'left':left, 'top':top };
      var index=added_items.findIndex(p => p.left == position.left && p.top == position.top);
      if(index<0){
      added_items.push(position);
      item.css('left', left);
      item.css('top', top);
      item.css('background', "#"+((1<<24)*Math.random()|0).toString(16))
      item.appendTo($('.grid'));
      }
    });
  
});
.grid {
  
  width:400px;
  height:400px;
  border:1px solid red;
    position:relative;
  margin:10px;
}
.item {
  width:40px;
  height:40px;
  position:absolute;
  background:red;  
}
.item:hover { 
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="grid"> </div>
