Mosaic Florals

April 9+10 2022
Saturday & Sunday 9:30am-3pm


$350

Class minimum of 4 participants

Mosaic Florals are made from a combination of glass mosaic backdrops and vases with found objects that substitute for flowers. In this class, Debra will share her knowledge of adhesives and specialized tools to help you learn how to prepare and assemble your treasures for mounting and how to work in a ready made frame. Since the arrangement won’t be grouted, you can use materials of all kinds including metal, shells, pearls, fabric, you name it! Debra has incorporated buttons, knobs, shower rings, even coasters! By the time you leave this class, you will go home with a magnificent mosaic bouquet completely unique to you.

  • scrap glass

  • mosaic tools

  • a variety of adhesives

  • If you are in need of more fancy items and more this-and-that to put in your mixed media mosaic, Debra is now curating Custom Collections for purchase. She has been collecting for many years and would be happy to put together a package for you. She will select treasures from her studio to include flowers, leaves, baubles and beads designed around your desired color palette and based on your budget. She will collaborate with you and share photos. She can bring those to your workshop or ship if you prefer. If this interests you, email Debra at Debra@DebraMagerMosaics.com to start shopping!
