Mosaic Art Projects
Classes at Magnolia Mosaic give you the opportunity to create something of your own while learning the art of mosaic, whether you’re a beginner or have prior experience.
The studio offers a wide range of classes, from small projects that take a couple hours to larger projects that take several sessions, so you can choose a class that fits your interests and time commitment.
There’s so much you can create with mosaics, from home décor, art, useful household items, wearable art, and more. Here’s just a sample of what you could create with us.

1. Cutting Tools:
The tools used for cutting tiles and glass are sharp. Please handle them with care and follow the instructions provided during class.
Always cut away from your body and keep your fingers clear of the cutting line.
2. Safety Glasses (Choose your personal classes or safety glasses):
Protective eye wear is required. Safety glasses are recommended to protect your eyes from small tile or glass shards during cutting. Feel free to bring your own or ask to borrow a pair in class.
3. Protective Clothing:
Wear comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting messy, as we’ll be working with adhesives and grout.
Closed-toe shoes are recommended to protect your feet from any dropped materials.
4. Work Area Awareness:
Be mindful of others while cutting and assembling pieces to avoid accidental injury.
Keep your work area tidy to prevent slipping or knocking over tools.
5. Health and Safety:
If you’re sensitive to adhesives or grout dust, consider bringing a face mask.
Wash your hands thoroughly after working with materials to avoid skin irritation.
If you have any questions or concerns before the class, don’t hesitate to reach out.
