Wine Bottle Centerpieces Just Add Lights
Doesn’t have to be a wine bottle; it could be a vase!
Puzzle-solving is a great mental exercise, and mosaics are great puzzles. Stretch your mind decorating a glass bottle. Bring a clean, see-through bottle to the workshop. It can be a wine bottle or clear vase but no texture. The flat front is the best surface to work on and, when finished, show off your mosaic talents.
These can make a unique “Get Well Quick” vase for flowers; add a cork, and you have a wine decanter. One student used pennies to decorate a large jar to keep her change.
Minimum 8 participants. All supplies are furnished; you bring snacks and drinks.

Telling a Story Using Photos and Mosaic
This tempered Glass Madness Workshop is very satisfying.
Ever need to smash something and then quickly compose yourself? Here is your chance in this tempered glass workshop. You decide on a theme, then bring photos that support that idea. Concepts like a vacation and graduation include small memory items, like tickets, dice, notes, hmmm. After settling on a design, a large sheet of tempered glass will explode under the protection of the cover. The experience of listening to the crackling glass always amazes me. Grouting instructions, grout, and rubber gloves will go home with you—an advantageous class for stress relief when combined with a generous glass of wine.
We will be working on an 8.5 x 11 board.
Minimum 8 participants. All supplies are furnished; you bring your images, memory items, snacks, and drinks.
