February 4, 2023 @ 9:45 am - 3:00 pm

Learn how to cut glass tiles for Mosaics.
Must be 16 years or older.

Have fun, meet people, have a chat, learn new skills and create a piece to keep. Bring some friends, or just come along and learn something new.

FEEDBACK:

  • Friendly, Informative – Loved it! – Larissa S.
  • Thankyou for answering my questions. You are very patient. I had a terrific time, thankyou – Christine K.
  • Great session for us to learn the basics. Super informative. See you again for sure! – Vanessa M.
  • Great beginner class. Learnt so much, thankyou! – Yvette M.

This workshop is ideal for those who are just starting out in mosaics, but have not ventured further! It is a fabulous starting point for those who want to get involved, or just want to experiment. The workshop covers everything you need to know to create a mosaic that will last: safety, tools, types of materials, substrates and adhesives suitable for both interior and exterior mosaics, mosaic design, and basic terminology.

During this workshop you will create a small piece to your own design (or you can copy one of mine). I provide a selection of glass tiles to shape, glue, grout and clean.  You will take home a completed piece.

  • No experience is necessary – just heaps of enthusiasm, and a sense of fun!
  • Glue, grout & clean your work
  • Take home a finished piece

Class fee includes:

  • all materials
  • use of tools
  • personal instruction
  • a set of reference notes to keep and
  • light refreshments.

Students to bring:

  • Apron – full body coverage
  • Pen and paper to take notes
  • covered water bottle – keep hydrated and protect against flying chips
  • Camera – most phone cameras should suffice. It helps to know how to convert your image to black & white
  • Safety glasses – If you don’t own a pair, you can purchase them here and I will have them ready for you
  • P2/N95 mask – If you don’t own one, you can purchase one here (https://merlinmosaica.com/product/p2-respirator-mask/) and I will have it ready for you
  • Lunch (full kitchen facilities available for your use)

Notes:

Students to wear closed toe shoes and old clothes.
