What It Is

Mosaic candle holder making is a decorative craft where small pieces of colored glass and beads are arranged by hand to create a glowing patterned surface.

In this 1.5 hour mosaic candle holder class in NYC, you'll design and assemble your own candle holder, learning how color, placement, and repetition transform a simple object into something warm and expressive.

Our Financial District studio is set up for both solo visitors and large private group gatherings. Whether you're joining an open session or booking for a team event, the pace is calm and the process is guided. You leave with a finished, handmade piece that adds light and character to any space.
