What you'll do

On the hunt for one-of-a-kind handmade gift ideas or fun things to do in London with a group? Come and learn how to piece together your own magnificent mosaic at this all-day workshop in Holborn!

You'll learn from expert mosaicist Giulia, who will help you experiment with the indirect method of mosaic making, where the piece is formed backwards on paper in a mirror image and then flipped onto the wooden support and grouted.

This one-day mosaic workshop is a great chance to learn about the history and evolution of mosaic as you get hands-on and have a go yourself. You'll pick up plenty of top tips from your teacher as you sit back, relax and let your creativity take over!

In this workshop, you'll cover:

Introduction to the course and the technique.
Selection of the design and materials.
How to transfer/ draw an image to prepare the creation of a mosaic.

How to create a mosaic using Andamento (layout) technique.
The indirect method: glueing your tesserae on brown paper and then flipping it onto the wooden support.

You'll finish this beginner-friendly craft class with a potential new passion and an exquisite mosaic to take home and treasure or gift to a loved one!
