Another K Art today! Leah Schultz, instructor at Twin Lakes Elementary, taught the class today. The kids created a Clay, Mosaic Heart. These turn out great after being fired. The Red clay turns more red, and the tiles really 'pop' when a layer of clear glaze is added. Clay is always a favorite!

Love this. The previous art teacher left me tons of mosaic square tiles. . . Are you saying I can have the kids press them in clay (they are already glazed) and then fire them and the glaze on the tiles will still look good???? I had no idea. . . that would be amazing.
ReplyDeleteErica- Be sure to do a project sample 1st. Do one without glaze and one with a layer of clear glaze. It was quite the discovery when it worked for me but I don't know about all types of tiles.
DeleteI will definitely try it! If we already had this conversation I am so sorry... Or maybe it's just déjà vu
