Birthday parties NOTE: due to work commitments we are not taking bookings for parties currently (from May 2011), but kits can be made up for you to hold your party at home. MDF mirror & heart kits (see below), available in several attractive designs, are simple to put together and (most) require no cutting. They are an really absorbing activity for a childrens party from about age 9/10 upwards and can be offered with absolutely no experience as detailed instructions are given (online, see below). £13.50 per kit, minimum 8. Mirror kits take about one hour/90 mins to make up, heart kits about 45 minutes. Collect from Newport or Saffron Walden.
Kits are either supplied with exact colours and layout to follow, or pay a refundable deposit and take away additional tiles so the children have alternative colours to choose from, though they must still follow the design.
A truly beautiful item using fabulous materials will be created to be treasured forever (by parents and children)!
Click here to see styles and instructions for mirror kits - (easy instructions here). Heart shaped designs (below), (heart instructions here) with 4 letters (max) cost £12 and require some cutting, or plain in various colours (£8.00) made with glass puzzles (very easy for little fingers) are also available. Minimum order 8 kits. 50p extra for glue.
Parties (when studio time is available, pls enquire as the situation changes) can be held at our studio in Newport. (See location). We have a well equipped mosaic studio for up to 12/14 students in 2 linked rooms, plenty of parking on the High St right outside and a tantalising range of materials.
