More mosaic madness
Another day of mosaics and another fantastic group of enthusiastic makers. It all started off with deciding on a design then gluing the pieces into place.
Some people worked picture frames while others chose to mosaic the frame of a mirror.
An array of pottery and broken china was provided and some people brought along their own broken pieces. There were also flat marbles, pieces of mirror, coloured glass and buttons available to use within the pieces.
Although these were very busy sessions, everyone was able to complete at least one whole piece and some people completed two.
A break for lunch was taken in the afternoon, then we went back to work grouting the mirrors and frames that were ready.
Grouting is a bit like cake baking but a lot crunchier.
All of the finished pieces were completely unique - a very good time was had by all.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for these very creative sessions. To view more images from both mosaic days as well as previous classes go to our Flickr group click here.

Mosaic Classes in Progress
What a fantastic group of women we had at our class on Tuesday - and so dedicated to completing their mosaics. Clare took hers home not quite finished, stayed up late to complete it then gave birth the next morning! Congratulations Clare - a beautiful mosaic mirror and a beautiful baby boy.
Here she is hard at work.
A very busy, productive day all around. We're looking forward to another fantastic group on Friday. Check out our Flickr group to see all the photos for the Mosaic Making Days as well as images from previous classes.
Dates for our Christmas events will be posted soon.
