Craft Sessions: Make Your Own Mosaic Tile

Join us for a relaxed and friendly evening when you will learn the art of mosaic making to create your own small decorative tile or functional coaster to take home at the end of the evening.    During the evening you will discover:

• An introduction to mosaic making
• Basic health and safety when creating mosaics
• Demonstration of techniques and styles to create your own mosaic tile
• An explanation on grouting your tile

There will be hands on support available through the session to help you learn how to cut and shape ceramic and glass tiles to make your perfect piece.  We will also demonstrate and explain how to grout your piece; as we might not have time to do this in the session, we will provide the materials and resources for you to be able to do this at home.

Who is it for?
18+, the class is beginner friendly. All materials will be provided.

What you need to consider: 

• This is a taster session therefore it is suitable for people with no experience in mosaics.
• All materials and tools will be provided.
• A good level of dexterity is needed to use tools safely when making your mosaic tile.
• The mosaics made in this workshop will be for indoor use only and should avoid getting wet. They may be cleaned with gentle damp cloth if need be.
• Please dress appropriately for a potentially messy activity.
• We will not have time to grout our mosaics during this session as it can take some time for the glue to settle.  We will do a demonstration and you will be provided with the materials and resources to grout your mosaic on the night so you can complete this at home once the glue has set on your design.  Or we can arrange to grout it for you and for you to collect it at a later date.
