The Art of Modern Mosaics

Step into the timeless world of mosaic art with Alasdair from Essential Garden.

With a rich history spanning over 4,000 years, mosaics are still a beautiful way to express yourself through patterns, shapes, and colour using ceramic and glass pieces. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a creative looking to try something new, our mosaic workshop offers an inspiring, hands-on experience you can complete in just one day.

Mosaics do not need to be boring or old. Our modern mosaic workshops include everything you need to bring your vision to life. We provide all the essential tools, equipment, safety gear, adhesive, and grout. You’ll also receive a sturdy, marine-ply wooden base in a shape of your choice, perfect for showcasing your unique modern design.

Choose from a wide variety of beautiful materials to create your mosaic masterpiece, including broken tiles, vintage crockery, ceramic elements, glass beads, mirror pieces, and more. Every piece you select helps tell a story through your artwork.

Want to add a personal touch? You’re welcome to bring your own special items from home – perhaps a piece of cherished crockery or an object with sentimental value to incorporate into your mosaic design.
Our creative environment makes this workshop ideal for all skill levels and you’ll leave with a finished mosaic piece and skills to continue mosaicking with confidence.

Join us in this relaxing and rewarding day of mosaic making. Whether you’re looking for a unique hobby, a memorable experience, or a handmade gift, this workshop is the perfect choice. Book your spot today and let your creativity shine through every tile!

NOTE:  There is NO refund or a transfer if you cancel less than 7 days in advance or once the class/workshop has started. Our refund policy can be read in full here.
