There are so many options when it comes to making mosaics. Choosing which materials, adhesives, boards, methods etc to use can be a bit bewildering.

This kit keeps things simple by providing you with an attractive design and all the materials you need to create it in mosaic. It is accompanied by an instructional video showing you how to put everything together. So you can create your artwork at a time and pace that suits you.

What will I be making?

The kit contains all the materials you need to create a starburst design like the one shown here. You’ll create a cluster of glass pieces to act as a focal point, then use slate pieces to create lines radiating outwards.

Video instructions will be provided, taking you step by step through the process.
