FUN WITH Mosaics!
In These Mosaic classes we do a combination of different types of Mosaics:
*Mixed Media
*Mosaics on a Backer Board (Heart, Tree, Garden Creature, etc.)
*Stepping Stone
*Coming Soon: GOG Mosaics (Glass on Glass)
See Individual Classes for more Information & what's included.
*Classes at Studio are small (Usually 2-3 people) to ensure individual attention.
*Most Mosaic projects are completed in several parts:
Planning the Design, Adhering Items to a Base, then Grouting.
*A "Grouting Party" may follow another day to teach student how to Grout & finish off their mosaic creation. Students may also Grout their piece the same day, depending on the Class; however this is rare.
Advanced Registration/Payment is REQUIRED for ALL Classes so that Materials and Class Prep can be Readied for each Attending Student. Please see Questions for Policy Info.

Greetings Glass Mosaic Lovers! In this Fun class, you'll be learning a *New* way to start a mosaic piece using a New & different base, applying EASY hangers, different types of adhesion techniques for indoor/outdoor hanging OR a Stake (Add'l. Charge). You can:
- Create a Tiled Mosaic: Incorporate mosaic & glass tiles (as shown in the green Heart pic); OR
- Create a Mixed Media Mosaic: A Favorite with ALL KINDS of Glass Beads, fused glass cabochons, metal beads, charms, found objects, ceramic, shells, broken plates, word or letter squares, whatever is hard, flat, and can be secured in the grout, etc. into your Mosaic Favorite project for the Mixed Media Mosaic!

Costs include a Hanging System, Choose: Mixed Media Mosaics: $66; Tiled Mosaic: $76; A Stake (instead of a Hanger) is an add'l. Fee; Please Inquire.
The Bases are approx. 11" - 12" wide; several bases that may be more expensive are wider at 15". You will receive the base & quality metal hangers (to apply) to hang your piece (VERY EASY application) OR to use as Stake (additional fee & easy installation also) prior to the mosaic of your base. :-)
If you choose to create one of the larger Bases, like the Palm Tree, student will probably need to add an extra 1/2 hour to complete since it is larger than rest.
