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 & clean your work
• Grout your piece on the second day
