Choose Your Colours and Mosaic Pieces

Choose Your Colours and Mosaic Pieces

Your creative journey begins by exploring a beautiful selection of mosaic materials.

Choose from colourful glass tiles, iridescent pieces, flower petals, decorative leaves, small squares, geometric shapes and eye-catching feature pieces.

You can take inspiration from our floral mosaic tray design or choose your own colours and create something completely individual.

Love bright colours? Go bold.

Prefer something soft and elegant? Choose pastels and pearlescent pieces.

There is no single "correct" design — the fun is in making the tray your own


Place, Arrange and Create

Place, Arrange and Create

Once your design begins to take shape, you'll start fixing your mosaic pieces onto the tray.

You'll learn how to:

Arrange different mosaic shapes
Create attractive spacing between pieces
Build floral and decorative patterns
Combine colours effectively
Position smaller tiles around larger feature pieces
Secure your mosaic pieces using adhesive

This is where your plain tray gradually starts turning into something completely unique.

There is something incredibly satisfying about watching the design develop one little piece at a time.


Learn How to Finish Your Mosaic

Learn How to Finish Your Mosaic

We'll also explain one of the most important stages of mosaic making — grouting.

Grout fills the spaces between the mosaic pieces and helps bring the whole design together.

Because your adhesive needs time to set properly before grouting, your tray may need to be completed at home after the workshop.

Where appropriate, you'll take home the grout you need together with simple instructions so that you can complete the finishing process once your mosaic has fully set.

After grouting, cleaning and polishing, your colours really come to life.


Take Home Your Own Mosaic Lap Tray

My journey into the world of arts and crafts began as a child, rooted in the simple joy of creating something from nothing. What started as teaching my own family the intricate loops of crochet soon evolved into a lifelong passion for artistic excellence.
After being awarded multiple 1st Prize awards at an international Expo in Mauritius for my mixed-media work, I realized that my true calling wasn't just making art—it was sharing the 'spark' of creativity with others.
Whether I am leading my weekly crochet community at Wesleyan or hosting an intimate face-to-face workshop, my goal is to help you disconnect from the noise and reconnect with your hands. I specialize in sensory-rich crafts: the tactile satisfaction of textured art, the scientific magic of resin, the atmospheric glow of candle making, and the limitless world of digital arts.
I believe everyone has a creative side waiting to be unlocked. Join me in my next session to learn a new skill, find your flow, and take home a piece of art that is uniquely yours."
