We use only the highest quality of materials in order to make sure the sustainability of the artworks made in our workshops.You will be building your artwork with hand cut stained (not painted) glasses and glass beads where the color will never fade away.The metal works on the lamps are made of zamak which is the mixture of zinc, aluminium, copper and magnesium with a special coating to eliminate rusting. Besides the lamps comes with wiring, us plug and led bulb.
Unfortunately, the chosen artwork cannot be changed during the workshop since we only bring the materials ordered to the pop-up locations. If you’d like to upgrade your artwork, let us know at least a week prior to the workshop, pay a difference and get a confirmation.
Yes. We do organise private events. We request min expenditure of 800$ - 1200$ depending on the location, and if that threshold is not met, 200$ extra charge on top of the regular artwork prices.
Take out the artwork from the box and let your artwork dry for a day. After it is dry, you can apply the ready mix grout directly to where you will be filling the gaps between glasses and beads. You should use a wet sponge to clean whatever is excessive on the top of glasses or beads right after applying grout without letting it dry. After you finish cleaning the excessive grout, you can let it dry for a day. Then your artwork would be ready to assemble. Learn more
