SAFETY INFORMATION

Class enjoyed the project, but needs more than two sessions to complete. Projects turned out nicely and students were interested in the video.

SUCH a great project! The students really enjoyed all of the hands-on learning. The end results were all vastly different, beautiful and they all really enjoyed the experience.
Suggestions:
-Bigger glue bottles please! Most of them ran out before session 3.
-I made a powerpoint that automatically cycled through the different mosaics from the website so students could look to it for inspiration while painting and sketching. Some found it really helpful and I can send it if you'd like :)

I am a mature student. I haven't studied art or drawn since I was in High School. On a whim I took the Watercolor Stories course. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it, and having fun with the course has been a highlight of my day for the last week.

My first project from RainForestArtProject, & it did not disappoint. Easy to follow instructions with all necessary tools included & I was brought to so much joy while creating my dragonfly. I've ordered 5 more kits since! Shipping was very prompt & great customer service! I look forward to ordering & completing my other glass art mosaic stepping stones. Thanks so much!

I sent a frog and a fish to my daughter and her roommate, college students who are studying remotely and feeling isolated. They really enjoyed the process, and the finished product is beautiful. Shipping was fast, everything they needed, including tools, was included, and the instructions were perfect. I'm going to order another one for my niece, also a student stuck in her apartment on zoom all day. [Originally posted on Etsy]

A beautiful mosaic kit with everything needed to complete your project, including tools. I bought two kits and made a larger project more than twice as big, so I needed more grout to match and the company was wonderful to work with to get me what I needed to create my work of art. Great product and great value for the money. [Originally posted on Etsy]

This is my first mosaic. I've been working on it for a couple days. The kit came with everything I needed. The Youtube link helped with questions I had. For me the hardest part was drawing the design on the tile. The tracing paper is a good start but would been easier if it had the transfer type that you could trace it to tile instead of having to cut imagine and trace. The kit has everything you need which i love i have alot of extra pieces. This kit gets 5 stars! [Originally posted on Etsy]
