Busy Mosaic Workshop coming up!




Beginner workshop/class Mosaics - fully booked!
Advanced 3-D/china and more workshop - fully booked!


What fun! The weather is glorious, the studio is ready and we have a student staying in the Diva Suite - perfect weekend coming up!




Spring really suits mosaic making! Garden pedestals, pots, frypans, garden signs, birdbaths, you name it - you can mosaic it!




Start thinking about Christmas too! Lots coming up at OzMosaics - next week we will issue some fact sheets in CLUB mOzOz for ideas for Christmas gifts, mosaic adorned, of course!

Keep those green and blue wine bottles as Sandy will show CLUB mOzOz members how to make mosaic Christmas trees, Sandy Style! Glitter and mosaic baubles go so well. Also, let's make some Christmas mosaic puddings!




The big seating project for Queen's Park Numbellie Seat is really looking great and we will also apply the remaining mosaics to the "Big Mosaic Ball". We will literally have a ball making this wonderful public artwork!

Well, I am off to get the glue bags ready, prepare some wine bottles for Sunday's wheelbarrow foliage, stack the china for breaking up - so much fun!




I will have to get the smashing wall set up again this Sunday, hmmmm....those were the days, when the tv programs showed up using the smashing arch! I must get those video snippets ready to show over the Event Weekend here at OzMosaics Studio in October. Join us if you can on the Sunday and the Monday to go to Australia Zoo!

Well, I am off to green goo!

Have a wonderful weekend! Have a smashing good time!
