What you'll do

Could your DIY home decor use a touch of vibrant colour? Join expert mosaicist Giulia and learn how to make your very own mosaic at this beginner-friendly workshop in London.

Working from a pre-made design, you'll learn how to create your piece using the indirect method, where the mosaic is formed backwards on paper in a mirror image and then flipped onto the wooden support to be grouted.

Your teacher will guide you step-by-step throughout the process as you begin to cut and shape your tiles, so don't worry if this is your first mosaic making experience. This half-day workshop is the perfect opportunity for beginners to have some crafty fun and pick up the basics!

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 cut and shape tiles to create your own mosaic using mosaic nippers.
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.
How to complete and grout your mosaic.

Whether you're developing a new skill with your besties or you're searching for fun birthday party ideas in London, this creative class is sure to leave you with a beautiful mosaic to take home and display.
