About

Design and create a set of mosaic coasters on 4 1/4-inch ceramic tile bases, perfect for brightening your coffee table or gifting to someone special. You’ll learn how to plan a simple design, cut and shape glass or tile, and grout your finished pieces for a smooth, durable surface. You’ll use nippers, adhesive, and grout while exploring color and texture on a small, satisfying scale.

This is a great introduction to mosaics and pairs beautifully with future projects such as trivets, mirrors, or wall art. All materials and tools are provided — just bring your creativity and curiosity!

Details

Skill level: Beginners welcome. If you’ve taken a mosaic class before, you’ll likely feel more at ease with the tools and design process, but no experience is necessary to enjoy and succeed in this project.

Materials

A $12 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, covers everything you'll need.

Class Policies

  • Long pants and closed-toe shoes are required in the studio at all times.
  • Ages 14 and up are welcome.

Barbara Henderson

Barbara is a mosaicist with a passion for helping others express themselves through the art of mosaics. She discovered art a little later in life than lots of other people, having been distracted by corporate life, ladder climbing, and the nonsense idea that she wasn’t creative. Now her favorite thing is to watch a student realize their unique ability to produce something personal and meaningful, and to develop their own artistic vision. Her favorite saying is that “perfection can be purchased at the Dollar Store. Art and beauty are found in the unique and flawed.” She serves on a variety of boards and committees and lives in Gig Harbor with her husband and far too many dogs and chickens.
