Join this fun course in Canberra and create a suncatcher from acrylic and stained glass!
This workshop is suitable for the beginner although more experienced mosaicists can work on a more complex design.
You take home a suncatcher to hang in your garden. Your design is limited only by your imagination and the shape you choose! The shapes are 200mm high, with a hanging hole top and bottom. I supply a hanging hook/swivel. Later on, you can attach something at the bottom if you want to!
All students will receive a 10% Discount Voucher to use in my store on their first shop (some exclusions apply).
Saturday: This course runs from 10 am - 4 pm. You will design your piece, shape stained glass, and apply it to the acrylic.
Sunday: This morning (9:30 - noon), we will be grouting the suncatcher using a super-smooth cement grout. Your piece is ready to take home and amaze your friends! Alternatively, you can elect to take a grout pack home on the Saturday, and grout in your own time.
  • Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of the workshop - time to grab a coffee and settle in. There is ample off-street parking.
  • There’s a maximum of 8 people in each class. A minimum of 3 students is required for this class to proceed.


Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 3 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

Merlin Mosaica is a mosaic retail store selling all things for glass mosaic across Australia (and internationally). It is the creative outlet for Ali Howson, who will be your teacher and guide in these workshops.
I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. As a painter I have exhibited in Melbourne, and regional NSW.
My key driver is a love and understanding of colour & texture.
I have collected glass for many years and have visited glass factories in Venice.
I made my first mosaic in 2005.  My material of choice is stained glass.
After many years in IT, I decided to engage in my passion for colour and glass, and want to share my love of this medium with others
