Mosaic a Bee Bath for your Garden

February 11, 2023 @ 9:45 am - 4:00 pm

Create a haven for our garden friends.
No experience required

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.

Bring some friends, or just come along and learn something new. This is a great class to do with a group of friends!

Make something for our bee friends, that is pretty too. Using glass tiles, you can make something like this, and our bees will thank you for it.

FUN FACT: Bees are drawn to the colour blue!

You will be using pre-cut stained glass and glass drops and tiles, working on a 21sm diameter terracotta pot saucer, that I have pre-primed. I will show you how to work cleanly with a silicone-like adhesive, and you will use a waterproof epoxy grout.

  • No previous experience necessary
  • No cutting required (or maybe just a little bit!)
  • Learn the clean way to use a polymer adhesive

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.
