Lois Johnston reviewed: Rainbow mosaic wall plaque (interior) - a mosaic kit in a box

"Came beautifully packaged with everything I needed to begin straight away. Spent a very happy few hours playing around with the tiles, gluing them down and grouting on the following day. Very happy with my finished item! May buy the other one to do next……"

"Fantastic kit, really clear instructions and loved making it thank you!"

Julie Mellor reviewed: Rainbow mosaic wall plaque (interior) - a mosaic kit in a box

"Just loved doing this project. Struggled at the start with the grouting but patience and time got me there. The end product is really lovely. Will probably buy another one!"

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Thanks for your review, I’m pleased you’re happy with the end result. Yes grouting is not for everyone, especially the first time. It is possible to leave artwork un-grouted if you are happy with how the piece looks after sticking the tiles so bear that in mind for future projects. (It would be essential however for a functional item or hanging in a bathroom area)"

Julie and Nicky reviewed: Mosaic experience workshop for two with award winning artist Julie Vernon Nottinghamshire

"As a 50th birthday treat for Nicky we attended what was Julie’s first ‘two to one’ socially distanced mosaic workshop since lockdown. Julie went to great lengths to ensure our safety without it impacting upon our enjoyment of the day, including a lovely lunch outside in the garden. Neither of us had tried mosaic before but with Julie’s excellent coaching style and wide range of beautiful materials, were able to harness our creativity and produce indoor plaques that we were delighted with. We were fully engrossed and the time flew by. A grouting demonstration and detailed take home support, including a YouTube video, extended our enjoyment beyond the workshop. We were thrilled with the finished product and have the day we spent making our first mosaic together etched in our minds as a lovely memory. We both plan to continue to explore this compelling craft and would highly recommend the course. Thank you Julie."

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Thank you, it was a pleasure to spend time with you both. Enjoy your artwork! All the best Julie"

"My sister and I had a fantastic day creating our first mosaics with Julie. She gave lots of advice and support but also left us to explore our creative sides too. The lunch was delicious and seeing examples of her work in the beautiful workshop was wonderful. I would highly recommend this to anyone who fancies trying their hand and mosaic making with a great teacher!"

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Many thanks for the review - it was lovely to meet you both. Hope to see you again in the future for some more mosaic making!"

Gabriella reviewed: Mosaic experience workshop for two with award winning artist Julie Vernon Nottinghamshire

"Had a lovely very enjoyable day. Julie is excellent in explaining very clearly and helping learn all the steps of the process. We learnt how to do a mosaic picture from start to finish and took home our finished product. Excellent. Fully recommended."

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Thanks for the lovely review. Good luck with the grouting!"

Catherine King reviewed: Mosaic experience workshop for two with award winning artist Julie Vernon Nottinghamshire

"My daughter and I worked collaboratively on a mosaic, Julie took this into account and gave us a larger base to work on to. The action of making the mosaic was totally absorbing and helped us to be relaxed and to clear our minds of day to day stress. The process of making something, with our hands was so satisfying, it was really the most enjoyable part of the day. We were very much in the moment and it was both creative and therapeutic. Julie is an excellent teacher, we had never made a mosaic before but she gave us clear guidance and then encouraged and supported us in the right amounts. Her studio is bright, warm and full of the tiles and equipment needed to inspire. We met some lovely, like minded people and would really recommend this experience."

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Thanks for the lovely review. I wonder who will get to keep the mosaic? Good luck with the grouting!"

Special thanks to Julie for helping me turn my ideas into something really special. I attended a couple of other workshops with Julie prior to starting this course and would highly recommend anything she has on offer! Super creative, relaxed and friendly way to spend your time. Give it a go!!"

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Many thanks Charlotte. It has been lovely working with you each week and seeing your chimney pot design evolve. I'm sure it will look fab in your courtyard and look forward to seeing the pics. Best of luck with the grouting challenge! Julie"

Hazel G reviewed: Mosaic fridays - 4 x weekly class

"I have been on a one day workshop with Julie before and loved it so much I wanted to come back. I had a project planned and although I had a hard time starting off my idea, Julie helped to clarify my plan so that I could achieve my wall plaque. The class is friendly and you can work at your own pace. Julie provides advice and guidance suitable for all levels and I really enjoyed making my end piece. I would highly recommend any course with Julie Vernon."

Julie Vernon Mosaics responded:

"Thanks for taking the time to pop on a review. It was great to work with you each week and I look forward to seeing your fabulous slate house number up on the wall! All the best Julie"

Hazel Gillott reviewed: Mosaic experience workshop for two with award winning artist Julie Vernon Nottinghamshire

"Amazing day. I booked the day for myself and a friend for her birthday and we had a fab time. Julie is a great teacher, the workshop was planned to perfection and on top of that lunch was lovely. I’ve already had some lovely comments about my work and I only made it yesterday. We are going back in a couple of months to make more advanced projects!"

Angela reviewed: Mosaic experience workshop for two with award winning artist Julie Vernon Nottinghamshire

"Had a fantastic day with Julie making an outdoor mosaic plaque. Julie offered encouragement and helpful advice and had an amazing range of colours and materials to bring my idea to life. A very hands-on course where we were encouraged to follow our own ideas and try different techniques. Great venue in her light and airy studio. A relaxing lunch which was most welcome - especially the homemade cake ?. Julie made this a really enjoyable and rewarding day that I'd recommend to anybody wanting to try mosaics or develop their skills."
