What

This isn't your standard mosaic class! I specialize in using unusual materials for mosaic art.... scrabble tiles, game pieces, souvenir plates, guitar picks, old campaign buttons, and so much more. And why mosaic a mirror or a picture frame when you could mosaic a bowling pin, a magic 8-ball, or a gum ball machine??! That means that I can help you to make a truly personal gift. And... okay, if you really want to mosaic a mirror, I can help you with that too!

I've designed a "summer special"! We'll met at the studio for the first session, but finish the session at Value Village where we can shop for project materials. I can help you in choosing those materials that will work best and help make your project a success and fun!!!

Second and third sessions are for designing, and gluing. The last session will be grouting (it's sooo exciting and fun) and a bit of a party, of course.
And hey, Ivars is just across the street!!
So dust of your creativity and jump into this summer fun!

Here's what one student had to say:
Here are a couple photos of my finished masterpiece.
We already hung it on the wall and put it into use.
It gets lots of compliments.
Thanks again for sharing all your tricks of the trade with me.
I learned a bunch and will definitely tell my friends!
thanks again!

My mosaics can be found in several magazines and a coffee table book and are sold locally at Venue in Ballard. I've also been featured on HGTV making one of my classic mosaic bowling pins! Here's a link to their site:

    I have taken the "make a stepping stone" or "make a mirror" classes. This isn't that class. Not even close. Julie changed the way I look at mosaics. I had a wonderful time experimenting with all sorts of materials. She is a wealth of information as well as a source of inspiration. I left her studio excited to get started on a new project right away. Anybody wishing to get started making mosaics or looking to learn more should take her class. I sure am happy I did!

    Get ready to smash some stuff, get grimy and make some great things in her classes...she's the best! You are seriously going to have some fun when you take a class from Julie! I mean...c'mon...mosaics on a Magic 8-ball?!? That's SO cool! Her mosaics are SO much fun and whimsical...definitely "not your mother's mosaics"!

    Oh, and definitely bring some friends...creativity is so much better with company :)
