Posh Pots – Make a Mosaic Pot

April 22, 2023 @ 9:45 am - 5:00 pm

No experience required.
Children over 10 are welcome, if supervised by an adult.

Do a mosaic workshop – have fun, meet people, have a chat, and create a piece to keep

FEEDBACK:

  • Really enjoyable and relaxing
  • Had a wonderful time , you are very patient and informative with your lessons. You have great products,so much to choose from. I have come away with some lovely pieces to enjoy. Excited about new lessons in 2023, can’t wait – Theresa P.

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

This workshop is ideal for those who are just starting out in mosaics, and would like to make something other than a flat stepping stone.

Create your own attractive mosaiced pot for the garden. I provide a great selection of glass tiles in a multipe colours, sizes and textures, and can give you ideas on designs that work well on the pots, or you can work on your own. Only limited by your imagination! These pots are a functional introduction to mosaics. Students will learn how to achieve a design using different sized tesserae while still having a pleasing symmetry or alignment.

  • No previous experience necessary.
  • No cutting required (or maybe just a little bit!).
  • Learn the clean way to use a polymer adhesive.
  • If you don’t get yours finished, I will demonstrate the grouting process, and give you grout to take away to finish at home (the glue needs to dry first).

Alternatively, for a fee, I can grout your piece for you for collect later (by arrangement).

Class fee includes:

  • all materials
  • use of tools on the day
  • personal instruction
  • a set of reference notes to keep
  • 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 (https://merlinmosaica.com/product/ultralite-wraparound-safety-glasses/) and I will have them ready for you
