A MOSAIC IS ONLY AS GOOD AS IT'S FOUNDATION

LEARN THE CORRECT SUBSTRATE...
AND HOW TO PREPARE IT

NO MORE RUINED MOSAIC PROJECTS!

Choosing the wrong mosaic substrate can ruin even the most beautiful design, wasting your time, materials, and creativity. Yet most mosaic artists overlook this critical step.

In this recorded version of my first popular Zoom workshop, you’ll get the full training originally delivered live — now available to watch at your own pace.

You'll learn what substrates to use (and avoid) for lasting, weatherproof mosaics — and how to prepare them like a pro. Whether you're planning a garden mural, patio table, or mosaic sculpture, this session will give you the clarity and confidence to build a solid foundation.

Whether it's wood, Wedi-board, mesh, or an old metal table, let's talk about the pro's and con's of each, and gain confidence making the right choices.

1 HOUR Workshop : SUBSTRATES

What substrate to use and how to prepare it

ARE YOU TIRED OF CRACKED GROUT?

Cracked or perished grout can be a result of a poor choice of substrate.

Let's spend an hour together, chatting substrates - the good and the bad,
and how best to prepare them for your project so you don't need to worry about cracked grout again!


Knowing the correct substrate from the start of your project will give you confidence to follow through with the other (let's face it) more exciting steps! and get your project to completion.

What Participants said:

" I'm fairly new to mosaics and didn't understand the importance of choosing the correct substrate for my outdoor projects, until now! Thank you Sarah ! "

My Story

I learned the hard way..

My mosaic journey started 25 years ago with an offcut of board and some old tiles....and it was baaad!

Wrong board choice, wrong glue, poor tile cutting and I even tried to paint over the ceramic tiles to achieve the right colours! Needless to say, I lost interest in that project and it got thrown into the dumpster!

But I learned what NOT to do and the next project was better. So much better that it got me hooked.

A gift for family made in 2000...
too heavy to hang (epic fail!) and wrong glue choice for outdoors (2nd epic fail!), but it started my mosaic-making passion

A commission made last year
