CREATE: *Nature* Mosaics (Hangable/Stakeable); Thursday, March 13, 2025; 2-5p **UPDATE! Only (1) Seat and (2) *Nature* Mosaic Boards Available - a Dragonfly or a Palm Tree!**
Greetings Heylo Group Glass Lovers! In this Fun class, you'll be learning ways to start a mosaic piece using a New & different base, applying EASY hangers/stake, different types of adhesion techniques for indoor/outdoor hanging OR a Stake (Add'l. Charge).
You can:
- Incorporate mosaic & cut glass (as shown in the Red Butterfly and Shamrock pics) for a Tiled *Nature* Mosaic by cutting/nipping glass or ceramic tiles in specific shapes for a specific pattern; This could be a much more time consuming project than the Mixed Media Mosaic, and may take additional time to finish; OR
- Create a Mixed Media *Nature* Mosaic (as shown in the Dragonfly, pastel Butterfly, and Iguana Tail pics) with : ALL KINDS of Glass Beads, fused glass cabochons, metal beads, charms, buttons, found objects, ceramic, shells, broken plates, word or letter squares, whatever is hard and can be secured in the grout, etc. into your *Nature* Mosaic project!). Most Students choose to do this as it's more flexible choosing a variety of fun pieces to include.
The Class Cost is different for whichever type of Mosaic (above) you choose and also the size of the Nature Item. The Cost can range between $66 for a smaller Mixed Media piece which is generally about 12" wide/tall to a larger Tiled Mosaic for a larger base which could be about 16" wide/tall... and cost about $82. Please determine which kind of Mosaic you choose to do in class PLUS Hummingbird or Dragonfly (smaller) or Butterfly or Palm (larger), and choose that one to Register for. If you change your mind, and want to do the other and you owe money, you'll pay in class. If you choose a Larger Tiled piece, and change your mind, then the extra will be refunded to you. There are NO CLASS REFUNDS otherwise/Exchangeable Only with Same Type Class.
*Nature* Base Choices include: Hummingbird or Dragonfly (11-12"); Butterfly or Palm Tree (12-15"). Please choose one to create when Registering. **UPDATE! Only (1) Seat and (2) *Nature* Mosaic Boards Available - a Dragonfly or a Palm Tree!**
Lastly, You'll learn about Grouting options. :-D You'll also receive a small bag of Grout w/Instructions on how to mix & use if you'd like to do that on your own at home or w/the *Grouting Party* aft. This class will be held in my Home Studio in St. Augustine.
You will receive the base & quality metal hangers (to apply) to hang your piece (VERY EASY application) OR to use as a Stake (small additional Stake charge accepted in class: Check or Cash only) prior to mosaic of your chosen piece. :-) Contact me if you're interested in creating a "Staked" Nature Mosaic (to put wherever you'd like outside or in a pot inside). (Full Shamrock pic shows as a "Staked" Mosaic). I will let you know add'l. cost. We'll review both Options in class.
In this class... we'll be creating on a flat surface, you can create a specific design (good idea to draw out or think about ahead of time with colors), or an abstract/mixed media piece... depending on how you plan your piece w/your ideas! :-) Class Cost includes all misc glass and mosaic tiles, plus other fun additions mentioned above, Instruction, Supplies, Hangers, Glass Cutting Tools (BRING Wheeled Nippers Only]) for this hanging *Nature* Mosaic! **Items pictured may not necessarily be owned/created by the Instructor.
