Make it..

At the Figuritive Mosaic workshops we supply everything you'll need to create an amazing insect.

Cut it…

Wheel nippers are the simplest way I know of to cut thin glass tile, combined with a glass grinder to refine the shapes.

Mark it…

Using the cartoon backing provided makes it easy to focus on developing skills for cutting and shaping .

Glue it…

For arts & craft projects regular old white glue works great. We usually use Weldbond or Aleen’s tacky but Elmers works too.
