3 hours Location St Albans Class size 1 to 24 (public classes), 10 to 30   £59

In this immersive mosaic workshop in St. Albans, you will learn the time-honoured technique of creating a traditional Turkish mosaic lamp. Craft a stunning illuminated piece by piecing together hand-cut glass and decorative beads, all while celebrating artistry and cultural heritage.
Don't worry if you're a beginner, as this workshop is designed for all skill levels. Your experienced instructor will guide you through each step of the process, ensuring a welcoming and accessible environment for everyone.
Step into our authentically decorated studio, where the gentle notes of Turkish instrumental music create a serene atmosphere for creativity to flourish. As you work, you'll be treated to traditional Turkish hospitality—sipping aromatic tea and sampling delicate rose delight. The studio itself becomes part of your cultural journey, featuring displays of musical instruments and traditional coffee-making implements, each with its own fascinating story.
Here's what to expect:
  • Arrive a few moments early to settle in and soak up the atmospheric studio environment
  • Select your preferred design approach—traditional or contemporary
  • Learn the careful art of arranging glass pieces and beads to create your unique pattern
  • Experience Turkish customs and refreshments whilst crafting
  • Receive clear instruction on the final steps to complete at home
By the end of the workshop, you will have crafted a beautifully illuminated Turkish mosaic lamp that will bring warmth and character to any space in your home. This activity not only provides a creative outlet but also offers a meaningful cultural experience that you can cherish for years to come.
Your creation will need 48 hours to dry, after which you'll apply the provided grout mixture at home. This crucial step ensures your lamp becomes a lasting piece of functional art.

  • The base ticket price is to make a candle holder. You can select different projects at checkout under the 'Add-Ons' menu.
  • All the lamps are equipped with electricity and they come with a wired-in UK plug. We also provide energy-efficient LED bulbs with lamps.
  • If you wish to make one lamp between two people, you can also select the 'Accompany Person' add-on.
  • The duration varies based on the specific project, typically falling between 2 to 3 hours.

Recent reviews of Mosaic Workshop in St Albans

  • 5/5 from Georgia Hull, attended Oct 2026: Really unique experience which I bought as a surprise for my friends 30th birthday. I had originally booked two tea light holders but I decided to upgrade on the day to the small lamp for the extra £16. Teachers were both really friendly. Would definitely recommend but it does take a little bit of patience. The lamp looks great now its been grouted and in its lamp at home! One suggestion for improvement is for the video and written instructions for the grouting you need to do at home the next day, to be more fool proof. I had questions which I obviously couldnt ask! I love my lamp! Really enjoyed the experience.
  • 5/5 from Katie Powderham, attended Oct 2026: It was a delightful workshop. Beautifully laid out. Great choice of colours to create our lamps, candle holders. Our teacher was excellent, so helpful and kind. We loved our workshop.
