Kids Classes and Birthday Parties
 Last month I held a kids school holiday mosaic class in Birkenhead.  The kids ranged in ages from 5 to 8 and they all created amazing pieces of art - I am looking forward to holding another one during the next school holidays.  These classes are suitable for kids 5 - 15.


I also attended a seven year old's birthday party and she and her guests made fantastic mosaic pieces.

Exciting New Products
 
I am very excited to announce the launch of a new range of Mosaic Stepping Stone Kits.  Following on from the suggestions I received for stepping stones I have been busy creating them and getting them ready to ship out.  

The range includes designs for the beginner with no cutting required through to the more advanced with cutting required with wheeled glass cutters. You can choose from: Garden Flower, Butterfly, Geometric A and Geometric B and a Shooting Star.


 
The kits contain everything you need to complete the project:  concrete stepping stone, tiles, glue, grout, design and instructions.   

To view all the designs visit:  www.everythingmosaic.co.nz/kits.html
More kits will be created shortly including wooden fish and butterflies so look out for them too.

Mini Ceramic Tiles

The latest range in ceramic tiles is now available.  They measure 10mm x 10mm and are manufactured in Morocco.

These tiles are great for creating detail in any mosaic project.

They are made of earthenware, glazed and fired at over 1000 degrees celsius.  The are not frost proof, but can be used outdoors in warmer climates.  

As these tiles are made and glazed by hand they are imperfect to a certain degree and will have variations in colour intensity.  This adds to their charm!

Why not add some beautiful mini ceramic tiles to your next mosaic project.

You can find these and all the ceramic tiles at:  www.everythingmosaic.co.nz/mosaic-ceramic-tiles.html
