Description

In this fun class we will channel what is in our hearts into a beautiful mosaic art piece to display on your wall, give as a special gift or create a memorial tribute to a special person or place. Bring your old jewelry, baubles and mementos. Using two part epoxy we will embed them onto an 11″ wooden heart and finish our pieces in one day with no grouting necessary. Some hand strength will be needed to knead the clay. No experience is required, so once you learn this simple technique, you might be tempted to mosaic everything around you and make special gifts for everyone on your list!
