New to mosaic?
A mosaic class teaches you to cut or arrange tile, glass or ceramic pieces on a base, glue them down and grout the gaps — on a tray, a stepping stone, a mirror frame or a lamp.
- Beginner sessions use pre-cut pieces; longer courses teach cutting with nippers.
- Two to three hours is typical for a single piece.
- Grouting is the messy part, so wear clothes you can wash.
Taking it home: Often the same day, though a grouted piece may need a day to set before it is handled much.
