Always wanted to try making a mosaic? Here is a fun project that's beginner friendly, and you can make on your own schedule! This kit is for the WHALE FLUKE design.
You'll get almost all the materials needed (see below) to complete your project. The wheeled nippers are needed to shape your glass to fit the design, and you'll find it's a handy tool you can use for future glass projects. Please select "add wheeled nippers" at purchase if you don't already have a pair, or can borrow them for the project. If you want to look for them in your area, they are usually sold at stained glass or craft stores rather than hardware stores.

Nightlight base and bulb
4” round clear glass substrate
Paper design template
Stained glass variety in colors selected for your design
1oz of Weldbond glue in a reusable, refillable bottle
Polyblend sanded grout, color charcoal (Custom Brands)

Because of vendor delays in the last couple years, it's sometimes challenging to source all the items needed for these kits. I will ship your order immediately if I have everything on hand, and let you know if there's an expected delay. Please allow at least 7 days for delivery. Thanks for your patience!
