Mosaic starter pack - glass tiles
Everything you need to start making beautiful mosaics with glass tiles
INFORMATION
This pack contains all the materials, tools and know-how you'll need to launch you into mosaic making. Fully-illustrated instructions show you in detail the steps you should go through to make your first mosaic and will inspire you and give you the confidence to go on to make many more. Everything you need is here, and the price represents a considerable saving on buying the contents separately.
Please note that the kit doesn't contain a specific design for you to follow. The instructions do contain links to several sources of visual inspiration, alongside illustrations of a few projects which could be used as patterns, but the idea is for you to start thinking creatively.
We also offer a starter pack with ceramic tiles, rather than glass. Have a look at the pictures with each listing to see how different the materials can look.
