What better than your name can identify you? Decorate with a mosaic the initial of your name or of the person you want to give it to.
Imagine the letter of your name with a mosaic part in it. You can use it to furnish an old dresser, a shelf, or any other place to bring your personality.
In fact in this workshop you can decide the decoration and the color of the tiles. These will be used to fill up with a mosaic the etched space in the wooden letter. Later I'll show you how the marbles, stone-paste and gold leaf tiles are cut. We'll see how to lay the glue down and how to position the tiles to create the decoration of your personal letter.
Of course, once the object will be finished, you can bring it back home with you.
The only things I ask you is to tell me the chosen letter, so that you can find it ready to be decorated. Moreover you can choose between the blue or dove-grey color to paint the letter yourself.
The workshop will last about 2/2.5 hours.
I suggest you to wear comfortable clothing (and warm clothing during winter!).
I'll give you the apron.
It is possible to agree upon a different time from that specified.

THE THOUSAND COLOURS OF MARBLE
Miranda, mosaic maker
The experience consists of a full immersion in the life of the company. After the first introduction, Miranda will tell you about all the phases needed in the preparation and processing of colored marble and the enamels used to compose the mosaics. At this point you will be ready to make your own 20x20 cm mosaic tablet, of which you can choose the design and colors among the materials available.
